Dress To Impress - Top Halloween Costume Inspirations From The Movies!

Charlize Theron: Atomic Blonde

We’re closing in on October 31st – that night when the entire world seems to turn into a cosplay convention. And while Halloween is moved a little closer to home this year, that’s no reason to abandon tradition completely; we’re dressing up, and nobody can stop us!

 

Of course, from fun with the family to Zoom calls with colleagues, there’s plenty of reason to put on a show – and if you’re in need of inspiration, Tinseltown’s finest can provide it in spades. So grab your gear and get to work; the party wouldn’t be the same without you…

 

TROLLS WORLD TOUR

Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €4.99

 

This one could get a little messy, but get the glitter ready! The cast of characters in the rocking adventure is pretty extensive – we’d need another list to get through all the options – but every single one of them is a show-stopper. It’s very much a go-big-or-go-home situation; an ethos we imagine the spiky-haired hellraisers would agree with entirely!

 

 

HARRY POTTER AND THE PHILOSOPHER’S STONE

Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €4.99

 

Sit under the sorting hat and discover what awaits you – or if you’re handy with the make-and-dos, go as the sorting hat itself! One of film’s most enduring franchises is positively packed with options – and every single one of them can bring their own little bit of magic...

 

SCOOB!

Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €5.99

 

The gang is back together – so why wouldn’t your crew do likewise?! Get your whole team into the Mystery Machine for this timeless option, especially if you have a four-legged friend to step into the biggest paws of all! Whether it’s new or nostalgic, there’s a reason it’s the definition of a family favourite...

 

 

ATOMIC BLONDE

Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €2.99

 

Blondes sometimes do have all the fun, don’t they? A super badass set-up from boots to shades, and it’s just like that other old phrase – any colour, as long as it’s black. Grab a weapon of your choice to help seal the deal, and let it be known to others that you really are dead serious...

 

DOLITTLE

Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €4.99

 

Are you a vet? An explorer? Or a philosopher? No, you’re Robert Downey Jr. as the iconic Dr Dolittle... so actually all of the above! Adventure is certainly calling out when you don the good doc’s garb – and if your pets start talking to you, then you’ll know you nailed it!

 

 

BRIDGET JONES’S DIARY

Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €4.99

 

OK, so maybe you’ve become so comfortable of late that it all seems like too much effort. Well, meet the undisputed queen of come-as-you-are. Sweatpants? Cool. Unkempt hair? No bother. Oversized undies? Well, you don’t even need to put them on! We’ve all had a Bridget day or three this year – but at least now you can pass it off as a killer costume!
