50 Dead Men Walking
Exclusive: New trailer for drama

50 Dead Men Walking

You might think that this is a far-down-the-line sequel to Tim Robbins' Dead Man Walking and that you've missed the last 48, but not so. 50 Dead Men Walking is a Donnie Brasco-esque drama about an IRA informant - and we've got the trailer right here.

The film stars Jim Sturgess (21, Across the Universe) as Martin McGartland, a real-life IRA informant who saved 50 lives by informing on the paramilitary organisation. Ben Kingsley plays his contact and handler, with support from Nathalie Press and Rose McGowan.

The film's due out here on April 10, and word of mouth in the Empire office is already pretty strong.

Helen O'Hara

I'm extremely wary of any film that would glorify a dirty tout like McGartland, but Rose McGowan may get me to see it. ... Read More

Spolier Warning!
I read the book years ago, it's certainly compelling. The bit at the end of the trailer where he throws himself out of a window (remember this is a true story) is when his IRA buddies finally cotton onto him. Said window was his only escape and he was three stories up. ... Read More
