Stormtroopers helped officially reopen Putney’s new Odeon Luxe after a three-month refurbishment.

They were guests of honour at its gala launch and cut the ribbon ahead of the release of ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ on December 14.

With 333 fully-reclining luxury seats across three screens, new speakers with Dolby 7.1 surround sound, it also comes with a range of upgraded food and drink options that include popcorn, hot dogs and chicken strips.

There is also a new Oscar’s bar that serves alcoholic beverages and a revamped Costa’s coffee shop as you walk inside.

The Putney venue is one of three which have opened this week in London, with others based in Swiss Cottage and Haymarket.
