Bill Nighy & Roman Griffin Davis Head to Ireland in ‘500 Miles’ Trailer

“I said I’d get you there – and I will.” The first official trailer has premiered online for an indie film called 500 Miles, a family dramedy made by British filmmaker Morgan Matthews. This will be premiering at the 2026 Dublin Film Festival coming up this March, but it doesn’t have any release date ready after then – though it’s expected to open first in Ireland and the UK before it hops over to the US later this year. Two brothers run away from home in England to reach their estranged grandfather on Ireland’s west coast. The film is a poetic, life-affirming road movie and celebration of the human spirit that follows a broken family who are forced to come together when two young brothers leave home. The cast is led by Roman Griffin Davis, Bill Nighy, Maisie Williams, Dexter Sol Ansell, Clare Dunne, Michael Socha, and Loré Adewusi as Tomo. The boys end up on an epic adventure departing from Yorkshire, over land and sea, to the wild west coast of Ireland. But it’s really about family and reconnecting despite problems. Worth a look. // Continue Reading ›
