Peter Serafinowicz, Jude Law, Jason Statham, Rose Byrne and Melissa McCarthy are among the stars attending tonight’s London premiere for new film Spy.

The action comedy is about a desk-bound CIA analyst who volunteers to go undercover to infiltrate the world of a deadly arms dealer, directed by Paul Feig.

Actor, writer and impressionist Serafinowicz spoke to BBC Radio 6 Music earlier about his role: “I think the fact I got the audition, that was the biggest surprise.

“I play an Italian agent and he’s extremely lecherous. And today might be the last day I’ll be able to eat Italian food in an Italian restaurant.

Serafinowicz, who is currently starring in Parks and Recreation, also revealed where his inspiration for the part came from: “Pepé Le Pew, really, it is like Pepé Le Pew.”

Spy is due to be released on June, 5.
