Tipperary actor Daryl McCormack is back on the big screen next month - and in the best of company - in the new thriller The Lesson.
McCormack, who was BAFTA-nominated earlier this year for his breakthrough movie performance in Good Luck to You, Leo Grande, stars opposite Richard E Grant and Julie Delpy in The Lesson.
The synopsis of The Lesson reads: "Liam (Daryl McCormack), an aspiring and ambitious young writer, eagerly accepts a tutoring position at the family estate of his idol, renowned author JM Sinclair (Academy Award nominee Richard E Grant).
"But soon, Liam realises that he is ensnared in a web of family secrets, resentment, and retribution.
"Sinclair, his wife Hélène (Academy Award nominee Julie Delpy), and their son Bertie (Stephen McMillan) all guard a dark past, one that threatens Liam's future as well as their own.
"As the lines between master and protégé blur, class, ambition, and betrayal become a dangerous combination in this taut noir thriller."
Directed by Alice Troughton (The Midwich Cuckoos, Tin Star) and written by feature newcomer Alex MacKeith, The Lesson is released in Irish cinemas on Friday 22 September.
