A lifelong Kiefer Sutherland fan, Annie Wilkinson-Gill made her admiration permanent by tattooing his face just days after meeting him. The 44-year-old horror movie enthusiast from North Yorkshire had already scheduled the appointment before learning he was filming scenes for Tinsel Town, a Sky Christmas movie, in her hometown of Knaresborough.
Sutherland, known for his roles in 24 and The Lost Boys, was seen by fans while working on the holiday film alongside Rebel Wilson and Teddy Williams. Annie, a business owner in the area, had been a fan of the actor since her teenage years and was left starstruck when he approached her on set.
Despite the excitement, she didn’t get to tell him about her planned tattoo, instead choosing to quote one of his most famous lines from The Lost Boys. The tattoo features Sutherland’s likeness as the head vampire from the 1987 cult classic and now joins her collection of horror-inspired ink, which includes Halloween and The Shining.
Hoping to complete the tribute, Annie wants to meet Sutherland again so he can sign next to the tattoo, a signature she plans to add permanently. She also believes the filming of Tinsel Town will help bring more attention to Knaresborough, attracting visitors.
Sutherland’s appearance in North Yorkshire created a buzz among fans, with many taking to social media to share their excitement after spotting the star. With Tinsel Town set for release in December 2025, fans of Sutherland and holiday movies are eager to see him take on a festive role.
