The film is adapted into 3D and had its World Premiere in September 2012. It is a live-action film from Fidélité Films and is based on Asterix in Britain (1965) and Asterix and the Normans (1966).
Julius Caesar lands in Britain, where a small village still holds out bravely against the Roman legions. But the situation becomes critical and the villagers have not got long to live; that’s when Anticlimax, one of the villagers seeks volunteers to go seek help from his second-cousin Asterix the Gaul and bring back a barrel of “magic potion” from the Breton village of the indomitable heroes.
