We’ll definitely be tuning into this.
Rebellion has got a lot of people talking since airing on RTÉ, and now TV3 are set to run to their own show based around the time of the Easter Rising, with a couple of great actors already signed up.
Tom Vaughan-Lawlor and Aoibhinn McGinnity, who of course starred as Nidge and Trish in Love/Hate, will appear in Trial Of The Century – a hypothetical study which imagines the leaders of the Easter Rising not being executed, but rather summoned to court.
It’s set to air in late spring/early summer, with filming taking place around the Smithfield area.
Vaughan-Lawlor will portray Padraig Pearse, with McGinnity playing the parent of a child lost to the battle.
We’ll certainly be having a look anyway.
