Cillian plays the lead in upcoming WWII film

Cillian

The Irish Film Board will be funding a new World War II epic, Wayfaring Strangers, starring Cillian as the lead. Michael Gambon and Robert Sheehan are set to co-star and Stephen Bradley will direct. The movie is set in Nazi-occupied France during WWII. Filming is expected to begin in the Autumn, with the locations yet to be announced. The plot is being closely guarded and has not yet been revealed.

Cillian's current playlist

Cillian was interviewed by Shortlist.com back in March about what he is currently listening to in terms of music. He listed some of his favourites as John Lennon's "Mother", Vampire Weekend's "I Think Ur a Contra", his all time favourite band Broken Social Scene's "World Sick", and a list of others. Cillian also describes and talks about his thoughts on the artists and songs in this interview, and you can listen to the songs as well, as they have included them beneath each description.

Thanks to Richard for the contribution!

Here is a bit more info about Wayfaring strangers from the production company website:

"Occupied France in 1942. A unit of British paratroopers are held by their German captors in a remote farmhouse. The farmer’s family are sheltering a young Jewish couple in the attic and their fate seems dangerously inevitable. But heroism is never so predictable…"

Sounds good! :D
