Picture of the day
Commemorating the 10th anniversary of the death of Seamus Heaney, the RTÉ Concert Orchestra will present Sweeney, a song cycle composed by Neil Martin based on Seamus Heaney’s Sweeney Astray, with vocals from Iarla Ó Lionáird and narration by Ciarán.
Based on the translation of the 7th-century Irish saga, Buile Shuibhne, it's a tale about the clash between the natural and man-made world that still speaks to us today.
Inspired by Bernard MacLaverty's acclaimed novel, it's the story of Gerry and Stella, a long-married couple, who reach a crossroads when they take a trip to Amsterdam. The midwinter break of the title turns out to refer not only to their long weekend in Amsterdam, but to the possibility of a rupture between them, as well as the more general stumbling blocks of old age.
Inspired by Claire Keegan's book, it's the story of Bill Furlong, a coal merchant and family man who faces into his busiest season during the weeks leading up to Christmas. Early one morning, while delivering an order to the local convent, Bill makes a discovery which forces him to confront both his past and the complicit silences of a town controlled by the church.
Ciarán joins Rory Kinnear (Burnt by the Sun) in the second season of the streamer's most watched original series.
It tells the story of Middle-earth’s second age, and is expected to be released in 2024.
It will be performed in Dublin and Kilkenny, on August 15 and 16.
The Family Plan is a comedy that tells the story of a suburban dad who must take his family on the run when his past catches up with him.
The story of fearless Russian journalist and human rights activist Anna Politkovskaya who exposed Russian state corruption despite numerous acts of intimidation and violence, including being poisoned. She was murdered in the elevator of her block of flats in 2006 and it remains unclear who paid for the contract killing. Ciarán plays Nobel Prize-winning newspaper editor Dmitry Muratov.
Shooting began late Summer.
The Dry - "an irreverent, hilarious, and deeply moving story of addiction, recovery and fractured family relationships" - tells the story of Shiv Sheridan as she returns to her home town of Dublin, sober and with good intentions, after years of partying in London.
But navigating this new phase of her life and being back with her family makes staying on 'the dry' much harder than she expected, forcing them to confront issues they had previously avoided. The eight-part comedy-drama series has premiered on BritBox UK on May 5, 2022.
