Latest Irish Film, TV & Theatre News

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.
