EXCLUSIVE: ‘Get Ready For It’! Man-band Take That have shot a cameo scene for the Greatest Days film that features hits from the group’s song book.Take That members Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald revealed exclusively to Deadline that they joined Greatest Days filmmaker Coky Giedroyc (Save Me) in Athens, Greece on Tuesday to shoot a short scene for producer Danny Perkins’ Elysian Film Group production.It was a truly glamorous moment. “We play buskers,” Barlow joked.Owen explained that the trio is seen busking at a train station in Athens.

They perform the number “Shine”, a song from their 2006 comeback album Beautiful World.”Yeah, we did the scene once Coky negotiated our ten-minute cameo down to about three seconds,” commented Barlow, to much hilarity from his bandmates who’d gathered in a suite at the Majestic Hotel in Cannes.Owen’s tresses were being coiffed, Donald was dressing and undressing as he tried on different outfits, and Barlow was already suited and booted, ready for his close-up.

They were to do a photo session on the Majestic Pier, followed by a private meeting with buyers who were shown a promo for Greatest Days bursting with song and dance.The film is based on the stage show The Band, written by Tim Firth (Calendar Girls), and produced by David Pugh and Dafydd Rogers. “The five lads in the fictional band are us but they’re not us, if you know what I mean.

They sing Take That songs and I suppose there are aspects that are similar to us,” said Barlow.The band in both the stage and screen versions act as a sort of Greek chorus as they follow five teenage girls—all devoted fans.
