LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, November 13, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Fans and collectors will have a unique chance to honor the life and legacy of one of Britain’s most beloved performers. Propstore, a leading film and television memorabilia auction house, will present The Alan Rickman Archive as part of its upcoming Winter Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction. Running December 5–7, 2025, the event will feature over 1,300 rare and iconic items from across film and television history.

HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:

Just in time for the festive season, the auction features two standout lots from the late Alan Rickman’s most beloved Christmas classics, Die Hard (1988) and Love Actually (2003).

From his unforgettable turn as Hans Gruber, Rickman’s heavily annotated, personal shooting script from Die Hard, complete with notes on some of the film’s most quotable lines, is estimated at $39,600 - $79,200. In contrast, yet equally synonymous with the holidays, Propstore’s auction features some incredible lots from Love Actually, including Rickman’s personal hand-annotated shooting script, letters from writer-director Richard Curtis, crew items and production ephemera, estimated at $3,960 - $7,920.

Building on Rickman’s blockbuster legacy, the catalogue also showcases treasures from his other iconic roles. From Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991) comes a bound, hand-annotated shooting script with accompanying photo, estimated at $13,200 - $26,400.

And no tribute to Rickman would be complete without Harry Potter, where he immortalised Severus Snape. A script page from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002), autographed by Rickman alongside Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint, carries a pre-sale estimate of $3,960 - $7,920.

The three-day Live Auction begins daily at 3:00 PM (GMT) / 7:00 AM (PST). Global online, absentee, and telephone bidding is available throughout the three days.

– Day 1 (Dec 5): Public in-room bidding at BAFTA 195 Piccadilly, London, as well as global online, absentee, and telephone bidding
– Days 2 - 3 (Dec 6 & 7): Global online, absentee, and telephone bidding only.

The final day will be dedicated to “The Day of Animation”, showcasing more than 300 lots of animation artwork, original cels, and other highlights celebrating the artistry of animation in film and television.

Propstore is also hosting a special two-day public exhibition at The Cumberland Hotel, London, opening Tuesday, November 25, where fans and collectors will have the chance to see highlight lots up close before they go under the hammer.
