Having come face to face with dinosaurs in the Jurassic Park blockbusters, Laura Dern knows a thing or two about working with four legged co-stars.
Her latest screen companions are far more cuddly, though. Laura joins a host of pet pooches, enlisted to help repair the heart of a grieving dog-lover, in her latest flick Year Of The Dog.
In the poignant comedy, which hits UK screens on September 7, the actress joins Saturday Night Live's Molly Shannon, who plays bereaved dog owner Peggy. When her beloved pooch suffers a mysterious demise, leaving Peggy with a void in her life, Laura, in her role as Peggy's sister-in-law, tries to help her rebuild her life - with some crazy consequences.
Sharing the red carpet with the pair at Thursday's LA premiere were Charlie's Angels star Drew Barrymore, Wayne's World actress Tia Carrere and comedy duo Jack Black and Ben Stiller.
