Farrell's Miami rain

Film

13:30 28 July 2006

Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx wowed fans at the London premiere of 'Miami Vice' last night (27.07.06).

The two Hollywood actors braved heavy rain as they huddled under umbrellas to mingle with adoring fans.

Oscar winner Foxx, 38, who looked ice cool in a white suit revealed he loves the way director Michael Mann has transferred the original hit 80s TV show to the big screen.

He said: "I loved watching the original, but this is very different. Michael Mann strips it down and makes it sexy. I'm here for him but I'm getting a little wet."

Farrell also admitted he loved shooting the cop movie but insisted he has no plans to grow a 'mullet' hairstyle like the star of the original series Don Johnson.

The Irishman said: "I enjoyed watching the original series as a kid but mullets are definitely not going to come back into fashion!"

'Memoirs of a Geisha' actress Gong Li and 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star Naomie Harris, the film's leading ladies, were also in attendance.

Other stars at the rain-soaked premiere included Ewan McGregor and Samuel L Jackson, who cheekily publicized his own new film, 'Snakes On A Plane', by wearing a promotional t-shirt.
