Recently I finished work on Warp Films’ new feature 71, directed by Yann Demange.
The 1971-set film follows a teenage British soldier who has to navigate the dangerous Belfast streets after he is accidentally left behind by his unit.
The original screenplay is written by the award-winning playwright Gregory Burke.
I was delighted to play a role in this highly anticipated feature film and look forward to seeing the final product when it’s released in the UK on 10 October 2014.
Watch the official trailer:
