New Irish crime thriller with Love/Hate star sets release date

The first trailer for the film has been released.

It's this year's second movie to be inspired by the record-breaking 2004 Northern Bank robbery in Belfast, following the Éanna Hardwicke/Eddie Marsan-starring No Ordinary Heist.

As the plot synopsis for Chasing Millions states: "£26 Million was stolen, but that was only the beginning…"

Thrown together against their will, the two's investigation quickly "spirals into a series of wild and unexpected twists".

Watch the trailer for Chasing Millions right here:

Chasing Millions is directed by the Irish filmmaker Stephen Burke, who made the acclaimed 2017 historical prison drama Maze.

Burke's earlier movie was about the escape of 38 Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) prisoners from Maze Prison in 1983 and starred Vaughan-Lawlor.

Shot in Dundalk in Co Louth, Chasing Millions lands in Irish cinemas on 9 October.
