Who among us hasn’t ever wished that the characters on the big screen in front of us would leap into our comparatively less than magical lives and make them a little more exciting than the everyday reality we’re used to?

We may have perfectly wonderful, functional, highly enjoyable but we can’t help thinking that a little Hollywood pixie dust and the addition of Hiro and Baymax from Big Hero 6, or a thundering Thor or bespectacled Harry Potter, would make things that extra bit special.

If you’ve ever had those thoughts, then rest assured so has highly creative French artist Francois Dourlen who has taken the leap from idle daydreaming of what might be to merging, courtesy of his strategically-placed iPhone and some choice scenes in his native France, well-known movie scenes with the everyday.

And the results are every bit as much as fun and magical as you might expect them to be.

Your plain laundry bucket as a Minion? Why yes that is possible.

Harry Potter in your living room? There he is now!

Rambo making highly unorthodox use of a viewing platform? Done, done and done!

Frodo in a tree in your garden? How did you not notice him earlier?

He’s also done the same thing with some TV characters too.

It all proves that day to day reality is made just that little bit better and less ordinary with some of our favourite movie characters leaping into it.
