Amy Huberman and her co-stars aim to tickle our funny bones in Fran the Man, the tale of an assistant football manager facing his biggest match yet.

Underdogs St Peter’s Celtic have drawn a hot ticket at the FAI Cup. But when Fran Costello fears that some of his players have taken a bribe to fix the match, he turns super sleuth. Directed by Stephen Bradley and written by Richie Conroy, the movie sees Darragh Humphreys reprise his role following the popular cult series which ran from 2009 to 2011.
