Bill Murray Day is now an official thing

Put the date in your diaries – September 5 is Bill Murray Day.

The star is so beloved by fans worldwide that he is to have a special day dedicated to him and his works at the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival.

On the day, film fans can attend free public screenings of three of the Oscar-nominated funnyman’s most-loved comedies – Stripes, Groundhog Day and Ghostbusters – ahead of the world premiere of the 63-year-old actor’s latest film, St Vincent, directed by Theodore Melfi.
