Zendaya and Zac Efron discuss their roles as two star-crossed lovers and the continued relevance of telling these stories in a new THE GREATEST SHOWMAN clip released today by Twentieth Century Fox. “It’s that tragic love story of them not being able to be together because of literally the colour of their skin” comments Zendaya, with Zac adding “Our film takes place in 1888 and we still have stuff like this going on”. They also talk about their sensational duet ‘Rewrite The Stars’, a track that Zendaya describes as “so special”.

There’s loads of content out there about movie locations and buildings you can visit in real life, but we wondered – what about the buildings that exist entirely in the realm of fantasy? If we took them out of their fictional worlds and brought them into the real world, where would we find them? Thinking about the setting, plot and themes of the films, we matched buildings like Hogwarts and Barad-dûr to logical locations in the real world. We then mocked up images of the buildings in their new settings, which you can see here. Just click on the image to flip it over and reveal the building and its location (but we recommend seeing if you can guess them both first!)
That’s your lot for now, more soon enough.
