Colin Farrell shows us his best action hero antics in Dead Man Down as Victor, a crime lord’s right hand man blackmailed to kill his boss.
By Genna Patterson
Castleknock local Farrell has come a long way since Ballykissangel, the TV show shot in Avoca, Co. Wicklow. He’s a good sort – did you see the pictures of him visiting Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital on Christmas Day? Bless.
With hundred of presents…double bless.
Farell stars in his latest movie Dead Man Down with Noomi Rapace, star of Prometheus. Rapace plays Beatrice, seeking revenge on Victor’s boss. She black mails Victor into killing him, who also seeks to avenge his wife and child’s death, caused by his boss.
Sounds like a nasty piece of work, that boss fella.
The boss in question is Alphonse Hoyt, played by Iron Man’s Terence Howard.
The director, Niels Arden Oplev also directed Rapace in the original The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo in 2009.
Check out the first look at the trailer for the new violent action movie.
Dead Man Down is set for release in March in the US, but so far there is no announced date for Ireland.
