Three of Ireland’s biggest film stars are set to star in the movie of Irish author Kevin Barry’s bestselling novel, NIGHT BOAT TO TANGIER. Michael Fassbender, Domhnall Gleeson and Ruth Negga are all to star, with Deadline reporting that the film will be directed by THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING‘s James Marsh. Fassbender and Gleeson (who previously starred together in the Lenny Abrahamson film FRANK) are set to play Maurice and Charlie respectively, and they are an intimidating and sometimes extremely violent pair ‘with a line in hilarious banter’. Ruth Negga is set to play Cynthia, who is the brains behind their operation, and a woman whose relationship with both men is deemed to be ‘tempestuous’ with Deadline reporting that the script will be written by Kevin Barry himself.
