Coinciding with its world premiere at the Dublin International Film Festival, a trailer has landed online for the new drama 500 Miles.
Directed by Morgan Matthews, the film is based on Mark Lowery’s acclaimed 2018 novel Charlie and Me: 421 Miles from Home, and follows young brothers Finn (Roman Griffin Davis) and Charlie (Dexter Sol Ansell) as they run away from their home in Yorkshire to visit their estranged Grandfather (Bill Nighy) on the west coast of Ireland.
The cast includes Roman Griffin Davis, Dexter Sol Ansell, Clare Dunne, Michael Socha, Maisie Williams, and Bill Nighy. Check out the trailer below…
While their fighting parents (Clare Dunne & Michael Socha) tear their hair out with worry, runaways Finn (Roman Griffin Davis) and his live-wire younger brother Charlie (Dexter Sol Ansell) embark on an epic adventure from Yorkshire, over land and sea, to the Wild West coast of Ireland. With the free-spirited busker Cáit (Maisie Williams) helping the young boys along the way, their destination is Dingle, County Kerry, and their estranged, beloved Grandfather (BAFTA-award winner Bill Nighy), who their parents haven’t spoken to since the fateful events of the previous summer.
500 Miles is coming soon to UK and Irish cinemas.
