Agatha A. Nitecka's portrait on cover of The Times

A fantastic photograph of Sir Ian McKellen, taken by stills photographer Agatha A. Nitecka, today graces the front cover of The Times.

Sir Ian plays an aging Sherlock Holmes in upcoming feature A SLIGHT TRICK OF THE MIND (See-Saw Films).  The portrait, taken on set by Agatha just last week, was tweeted by Sir Ian last night.  It has since been retweeted over 13,000 times, and was this morning reprinted on the front page of the national newspaper.

A wonderful accolade for Agatha, an exciting glimpse of the film and, we might suggest, one of the best photographs we've seen of Sir Ian in quite some time!
