Northern Irish child actor Jude Hill said he feels “lucky” to have had his feature film debut in Kenneth Branagh’s semi-autobiographical film BELFAST. The 10-year-old said he had “loved” the process of auditioning and working with the “fantastic” cast of older actors. He plays nine-year-old Buddy, a role based on Branagh himself, in the film, which follows a working-class protestant family during The Troubles in Northern Ireland.
