Cillian Murphy is looking forward to this year’s Sounds From A Safe Harbour festival. Though the Cork actor has been part of the curation team for the biennial event since its inauguration in 2015, his low-profile support role evolves into front-and-centre stardom this time around with the European premiere of his latest film Steve, at the Arc cinema.

The 49-year-old has said he’s delighted to bring the first showing on this side of the Atlantic to his home town for what will be only his second film premiere in Cork, following the Mahon Point launch of The Wind That Shakes The Barley in 2006.
