The ice may be thinner, but for Liam Neeson’s Mike McCann, the stakes have never been higher. ICE ROAD: VENGEANCE plunges us back into a world where survival is a daily battle, but this time, the fight is driven by something far more profound than just cargo.
Liam Neeson, the man synonymous with grit and relentless determination, returns as Mike McCann, a character deeply etched by the unforgiving nature of the ice roads and profound personal loss. In VENGEANCE, his journey takes a starkly different turn as he travels to Nepal, not for another perilous delivery, but to honor the last wishes of his late brother, scattering his ashes on Mount Everest. It’s a mission of quiet grief and profound respect that is violently interrupted, forcing McCann back into the kind of high-stakes conflict only a man of his unique skills can navigate.
This isn’t just another action movie; it’s a raw, emotional exploration of retribution and a man pushed to his absolute limits. As McCann finds himself caught in a web of ruthless mercenaries and a desperate fight to protect innocent lives, his motivations are deeply rooted in the past, demanding a reckoning that will test his resolve like never before. Neeson brings his signature intensity to the role, transforming what could be just another fight for survival into a visceral quest for justice.
Prepare for an adrenaline-fueled experience as McCann utilizes his unique blend of cunning, resourcefulness, and sheer force of will to overcome impossible odds. The treacherous mountain roads of Nepal provide a stunning, yet equally dangerous, backdrop to the escalating tension, replacing the frozen lakes with dizzying heights and unforgiving terrain.
ICE ROAD: VENGEANCE is more than just a sequel; it’s a testament to the enduring power of a man driven by a profound sense of purpose. If you’re ready to witness Liam Neeson deliver a performance that blends heart-stopping action with a deeply personal quest for redemption, then prepare yourself. The road to vengeance is open, and Mike McCann is driving.
Fresh from wrapping THE IMMORTAL MAN, Cillian Murphy is teaming up with Daniel Craig and Michelle Williams for Damien Chazelle`s mysterious new prison drama—and the buzz is already deafening.
Production starts later this year through Chazelle`s Wild Chickens Productions, with Paramount distributing, but details remain sparse beyond the prison setting.
For Murphy, it`s another chance to do what he does best: portray men under impossible pressure with that signature intensity and precision. A contained prison environment with Craig and Williams?
That`s not just a movie—that`s a masterclass waiting to happen.

🎬 LEGENDARY BELFAST ACTOR CIARÁN HINDS TO RECEIVE LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD 🏆
From Belfast streets to Hollywood`s biggest stages, Ciarán Hinds has given us five decades of unforgettable performances.
The Irish Film & Television Academy is honoring this Oscar-nominated powerhouse with the Irish Academy Award for Lifetime Achievement at this year`s IFTA ceremony on February 20th.
Hinds has worked with everyone from Scorsese to Spielberg, shared the screen with icons like Judi Dench and Cate Blanchett, and earned nominations from the Oscars, Golden Globes, and BAFTAs. Whether in BELFAST (which earned him that Oscar nod), EXCALIBUR, or countless other projects, he`s brought depth, dignity, and raw talent to every role.
With new projects like Netflix`s EAST OF EDEN on the horizon, this Belfast-born legend continues to prove why he`s one of Ireland`s greatest exports to cinema. A true master of the craft. 👏
Congratulations, Ciarán! ✨

From BBC talent show contestant to Golden Globe winner 🏆✨
Jessie Buckley`s journey is pure cinema magic. Eighteen years after appearing on I`D DO ANYTHING as a teenager, she`s now an Oscar frontrunner for her stunning performance as Shakespeare`s wife in HAMNET.
The Irish actor just took home the Golden Globe for best actress in a drama, and with Academy Award nominations dropping January 22, she could become only the fifth Irish actor ever to win that coveted gold statuette.
Even more incredible? Northern Ireland author Maggie O`Farrell, who wrote the original novel, co-wrote the screenplay and could score her own Oscar. A potential double win for the island of Ireland 🇮🇪
Co-produced by Steven Spielberg (who says he "loved" the book) and co-starring Paul Mescal as Shakespeare himself, HAMNET brought together a Chinese director, Irish leads, a Polish crew, and British collaborators to tell the story of England`s most famous writer.
From reality TV to the precipice of Oscar glory—this is what the long game looks like 🎬

After two decades, Cillian Murphy returns to the franchise that helped define his career.
28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE reunites him with visionary director Danny Boyle for what could be their most ambitious collaboration yet—a film that dares to ask not how we survive the apocalypse, but what we become after it.
In theatres Jan 16, this isn`t about spectacle or escalation. It`s about maturity. Boyle has always excelled at capturing collapse—of systems, of morality, of identity—and now he`s exploring what comes after. What happens when two generations must coexist: those who remember the world before, and those who only know ruin.
Murphy`s return feels essential, not nostalgic. His presence grounds the film in its own history while pushing it forward into uncomfortable new territory. This is a story about staying, not running. About building something permanent in a world shaped by impermanence.
If Boyle and Murphy deliver on this thematic promise, THE BONE TEMPLE could stand as one of the franchise`s most thoughtful entries—proof that true horror isn`t infection, but what we become when we try to move on from it.
