Misterman

Lots of Cillian news this month, starting with the latest on Misterman, which has the biggest buzz of the Galway Arts Festival. This is a new version of a play written 13 years ago by Enda Walsh; in case you missed it, here's the teaser video. As we reported earlier, this one-man show is the first time Cillian and Walsh have worked together since Disco Pigs, the theatrical production that got them noticed well beyond the 1996 Corcadorca Festival.

Misterman is a dark, occasionally humorous look inside the mind of a killer; Walsh describes it further in this video. Mounting a play is expensive, especially these days, and Landmark Productions, the company staging Misterman, has started a fund drive to support it; you can check out a description here. There's also a contest to win programs and posters signed by Cilly — sweet!

In movie news, the poster for Red Lights was unveiled on this cool Spanish sci-fi site. Here's a translation of the main part: "Red Lights tells how a psychologist (Weaver) and one of her students (Olsen) conducted a study related to the world of the paranormal. For this reason, they began to investigate a renowned seer (De Niro). Red Lights is scheduled to be released in theaters next year.

And the suspense over Cillian's thriller Retreat is (almost) over: The movie will be shown in U.S. theaters! Rippleworld.com reports that the North American rights were snagged by Sony. Check back here for release dates, updates, and more news!

Angelica it's not a contest, if you help fund the production then you get a reward, it depends on how much money you give to fund it, there's a list on what you will recieve on specific amounts, the link is in the article. Does anyone have any news on "In Time"?
