Paramount have sent over the first trailer for their new movie, Shadow Dancer which is set to premiere this evening at the Belfast Film Festvial and will show later on in the month at the Edinburgh Film Festival. If all goes well, one of our awesome chaps will get a review of it up as soon as possible.
In the meantime, have a watch of this first trailer which comes from Director James Marsh and screenwriter Tom Bradby. Shadow Dancer stars Clive Owen, Andrea Riseborough, Aidan Gillen, Domhnall Gleeson, Brid Brennan, David Wilmot, Stuart Graham, Martin McCann and Gillian Anderson. It’ll be with us 25th August.
Single mother Collette McVeigh (Andrea Riseborough) is a Republican living in Belfast with her mother and hardliner IRA brothers. When she is arrested for her part in an aborted IRA bomb plot in London, an MI5 officer Mac (Clive Owen) offers her a choice: lose everything and go to prison for 25 years or return to Belfast to spy on her own family. With her son’s life in her hands, Collette chooses to place her trust in Mac and return home, but when her brothers’ secret operation is ambushed, suspicions of an informant are raised and Collette finds both herself and her family in grave danger.
