"I will do whatever it takes to end breast cancer" - Cynthia Nixon

Nixon, an ambassador for breast cancer organisation Susan G Komen for the Cure, is auctioning off two tickets to the event on eBay, with proceeds to go to the charity.

The winner and a guest will be flown to London for the May 12 premiere, and get to meet the actress herself.

Nixon said: "As the daughter of a breast cancer survivor and a breast cancer survivor myself, I have experienced the disease from both sides.

"I will do whatever it takes to end breast cancer."
