Last updated 22nd Jul 2021
The first look image from Kenneth Branagh's upcoming film Belfast, starring Jamie Dornan and Caitriona Balfe, has been released and we cannot wait!
Fifty Shades of Grey star Jamie Dornan and Outlander actress CaitrÃona Balfe enjoy a dance in the first-look still from the upcoming movie.
Set to receive its world premiere in September at the Toronto International Film Festival, Dornan stars alongside Ciarán Hinds (Game of Thrones) and Dame Judi Dench.
'Belfast' tells the story of one boy’s childhood amid the music and social tumult of the late 1960s. Dornan and Balfe play a glamorous working-class couple caught up in the mayhem, and Dench and Hinds portray the sharp-witted grandparents.
This looks like it might be a tear-jerker and could break a few hearts.
Jamie next project he's currently working on is a BBC thriller, a six-part series called The Tourist. Jamie plays a British man who finds himself in the glowing red heart of the Australian outback, being pursued by a vast tank truck trying to drive him off the road.
A date hasn't been released yet from the BBC, the cast and crew are still in south Australia filming right now.
