Stars hit red carpet for The Kingdom premiere

Actor Jamie Foxx and his action film co-star Jennifer Garner hit the red carpet in London for the premiere of their latest movie The Kingdom.The Hollywood pair play FBI secret agents who lead a team to Saudia Arabia after a group of terrorists blow up a housing compound, killing and injuring hundreds of people.Their mission is to catch the terror mastermind behind the devastating plan but Foxx, 39, explains that the film is not trying to push a political message."Anytime there's oil and money, that's where chaos is going to happen. I've always known that, that's why it was easier to take this part. It's not a political message but it's wrapped in something that is political, so having that knowledge makes it easier to play the part," he said.Daredevil star Garner, 35, is married to fellow actor Ben Affleck and gave birth to their daughter, Violet, now 22 months old, shortly before shooting the film.Garner: "I think it's tough on any working mum, I don't know how anybody does it. But actually as an actress you have it pretty easy because my daughter got to come with me. They were really great about giving me breaks so I could go feed her, take care of her and play with her a little."The film is released nationwide on October 5.© Independent Television News Limited 2007.
