Matteo Simoni surprises the 500,000th visitor of ‘Zillion’ and sets the cinema hall on fire with a rain of money

Millions by director Robin Pront surpassed the magical mantle of 500,000 visitors. The film about Antwerp’s infamous mega-disco by much-discussed owner Frank Verstraeten made it into the top 20 best Flemish films of all time in just over a month. To celebrate the overwhelming success of the press, the protagonists Matteo Simoni, who played Dennis Black Magic, and Jonas Vermeulen, who played the bizarre boss of Zillion, have turned the largest auditorium of Kinepolis Antwerp upside down with a veritable ‘rain of money ‘ as in the wild party evenings of yore. Simoni then chose from the crowd Ilse De Graaf (25) from Lommel in Limburg to put her in the spotlight. To the million!
