From one of Charles Dickens' most beloved novels comes some of his most unforgettable characters, vibrantly brought to life by a star-studded, award-winning cast. In Nicholas Nickleby, young Nicholas (Charlie Hunnam) and his family have enjoyed a comfortable life. Nicholas' father dies, the family it left penniless, and Nicholas, his sister, and mother venture to London to seek help from their Uncle Ralph (Christopher Plummer). Unfortunately, Ralph's only intentions are to break up the family and exploit them, and Nicholas is sent to work at a school run by the cruel and abusive Wackford Squeers (Jim Broadbent). Eventually, Nicholas runs away with his kind-hearted friend Smike (Jamie Bell), and the two set off on an adventure to find and reunite the Nickleby family.
