Colin earned his first on-camera role in the Irish TV movie, ‘Home for Christmas’ where his role as Norman lead to him winning the Best New Talent IFTA. He mixes television work with theatre work like his co-star, Ciarán Hinds. Ciarán is well accustomed to supernatural thrillers having last year collected a spate of accolades – including a Tribeca film Festival Award – for his lead turn in Conor McPherson’s ‘The Eclipse’. Has the actor found his niche in clever atmospheric thrillers? “I like these sort of films because they’re not just meant to be scary,” he tells us. “I’m not going to put all the blame on Conor McPherson but strangely enough he offered me a part in ‘The Seafarer’ years ago and I was playing a character called Mr. Lockheart, who turned out to be the devil. And then we discussed ‘The Eclipse’, and then the next thing I know, sure enough I’m playing a Dominican priest in the Vatican in this film. And I’ve just finished playing the devil in ‘Ghostrider’… so I don’t know, it’s clearly out of my control. And I don’t know where I’m going after this… straight to hell maybe!”
