Tim Burton’s “World” Hits London: Iconic Filmmaker Unveils 600 Rare Items in Final Exhibition

Breaking news – story developing: The World of Tim Burton is hitting London, UK for the first time, and Bored Panda received exclusive access to review the highly anticipated exhibition which will be open to the public on Friday (October 25). The major exhibition includes 600 items from Tim Burton’s 50 years of creative output, some of which have never been on public display in the UK before. The iconic filmmaker will be in attendance today (October 23), and we look forward to the opportunity to engage with him directly and ask some burning questions.

Some of the items anticipated to be highlighted at the exhibition today are 1992’s Batman Returns’ Catwoman’s suit and Wednesday Addams’ viral Rave’N dance dress.

Moreover, the display also features hundreds of Burton’s expressionistic sketches and drawings that he has created prolifically since childhood

The hundreds of emblematic items were loaned from Burton’s extensive personal archives, key film studio archives including Paramount, Amazon MGM Studios, and Warner Bros, and the private collections of Burton’s collaborators.

The World of Tim Burton will open on Friday (25 October), just in time for Halloween. It showcases Burton’s remarkable output, with over 18 of his films individually spotlighted in the exhibition.

The exhibition comes to London after a decade-long world tour in 14 cities in 11 different countries since 2014. Its London display marks the very final time the exhibition will be staged.
