Hollywood funnymen Chris Rock and Ben Stiller thrilled fans at the Australian premiere of Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, held at the prestigious State Theatre in Sydney on Monday night (November 17).
Dreamworks boss Jeffrey Katzenberg, who’s also promoting Madagascar, said it was an exciting time to be in Australia.
“Right now – these last 24 hours it feels like Hollywood has moved here,” Katzenberg told AAP.
Rock agreed with his sentiments.
“Yeah, you know me – Hugh Jackman, Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig – we’re all just hanging out. It was like: ‘Let’s go together’,” he said.
The sequel to the 2005 animated hit Madagascar will be released in Australia next month.
