‘Kneecap’ Coming Back to Theaters From Sony Pictures Classics – MASHAHER


“Kneecap,” a rollicking look at the titular hip hop trio, will return to theaters in a big way. The indie film, which Sony Pictures Classics released, has grossed over $1 million in the U.S. and nearly $2 million in the U.K., where the Irish rap group has a particularly passionate fanbase. “Kneecap” will get re-released in 154 theaters across the country this coming weekend.

The renewed theatrical push coincides with the band’s return to the States this month for a tour to support their new album, “Fine Art.” It’s a visit that will see the group hit venues in places like Philadelphia, New York, Boston, Chicago, Louisville and Washington, D.C.

Bandmembers — Naoise Ó Cairealláin aka Móglaí Bap, Liam Óg Ó Hannaidh aka Mo Chara and JJ Ó Dochartaigh aka Dj Provaí — all play themselves in the film. The movie also co-stars Michael Fassbender, Josie Walker, Fionnuala Flaherty, Jessica Reynolds, Adam Best and Simone Kirby. The film has been selected as Ireland’s entry for the Academy Award for best international feature this year.

The movie will return to theaters in such major markets as Universal City, Calif.; Phoenix, Ariz.; San Diego, Calif.; Miami, Fla.; Orlando, Fla.; Atlanta, Ga.; Chicago, Ill.; New Orleans, La.; Boston, Mass.; Kansas City, Kan.; Las Vegas, Nev.; Dublin, Ohio; Tulsa, Okla.; Knoxville, Tenn.; Houston, Texas; New York, N.Y.; and San Francisco, Calif.

“Kneecap” was written and directed by Peppiatt from a story by Peppiatt, Ó Cairealláin, Óg Ó Hannaidh and Ó Dochartaigh. It was produced by Trevor Birney and Jack Tarling.
