Keith Duffy lands film role

Keith Duffy of Boyzone has won a lead role in a forthcoming film, Concealment.

The Second World War action thriller tells the story of the disappearance of a German plane-bound for Scotland.

It is set to begin shooting later this year.

The aircraft vanishes, and Keith will play one of two heroes dispatched to find it.

He said: "I'll play Tony, one of the two guys on the mission.

"I'm really looking forward to doing it and hopefully it will be released sometime in 2002."

Since his appearance in Celebrity Big Brother the singer has been flooded with work offers.

"I've had several other big offers and at the moment they are in negotiation," he said.
