Very Bad Day Makes For a Very Good Night at the Alexander Hollywood Premiere

In Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, 11-year-old Alexander and his family find themselves living through a bad day of truly epic proportions. D23 was on the red carpet for the film’s World Premiere at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood on October 6, where the movie’s entire cast came out for what turned out to be a very good evening, indeed!
