Anne Hathaway, renowned for her roles in The Devil Wears Prada and The Dark Knight Rises, has recently showcased her deep affection for Arsenal Football Club. Her enthusiasm became particularly evident through her TikTok videos, where she sings North London Forever, the Arsenal anthem, following their impressive 3-0 victory over Real Madrid in the Champions League.

Hathaway's Arsenal Journey

It remains unclear how long Hathaway has been a Gunners supporter, but her commitment seems well-established. Last April, during an interview for her film The Idea of You, she was seen celebrating a goal with co-star Nicholas Galitzine, another Arsenal fan. The goal in question was scored by Leandro Trossard during a match against Wolves, which Arsenal won 2-0 on April 20, 2024. This moment prompted Trossard to send her a video message, expressing his hope to see her at Emirates Stadium.

Has Hathaway Attended an Arsenal Game?

Despite Trossard's invitation, there is no public record of Hathaway having attended a game at Emirates Stadium. However, her support has notably intensified during Arsenal's journey to the Champions League semi-finals. She recently expressed her joy on Instagram over Bukayo Saka's return from injury, posting a photo of herself in an Arsenal jersey with the caption, "Welcome back #7".

Hollywood's Football Fandom

Hathaway is part of a broader trend of Hollywood celebrities who are passionate about English football. Russell Crowe, famous for his role in Gladiator, is a devoted Leeds United supporter and part owner of the club. Tom Hanks, another celebrated actor, is known for his support of Aston Villa and has been spotted at their games. Catherine Zeta-Jones, a star of Ocean's Twelve, supports her hometown team, Swansea City, and once filled her New York swimming pool with swans to celebrate a victory over Manchester United.

Anne Hathaway's public display of support for Arsenal not only highlights her personal passion but also underscores the global appeal of English football, connecting fans from all walks of life, including the glittering world of Hollywood.
