REDDITCH-BORN stage and screen star Charles Dance, known to sci-fi fans for his role as Ripley's confidante Dr Clemens in Alien 3 and now on TV as Tywin Lannister in Game of Thrones, will next be seen on the big screen in the crime thriller St George's Day.
Metrodome Distribution today announced it is to release the film in the UK on September 7, 2012.
The film's Facebook page says of Dance's involvement: "A sterling cameo role in the film is held by him. We hardly ever think of C.D. as a gangster... this role though is of Trenchard, the daddy of them all.
"Knowing, strongly connected, and has stayed under the wire his entire illicit career. Dance exhibits his usual great command of a role, you are really going to enjoy this."
Official description
St. George's Day is Frank Harper's directorial debut. Starring Harper (Bend It Like Beckham, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, The Football Factory), Craig Fairbrass (Cliffhanger), Vincent Regan (300), Neil Maskell (Kill List), Luke Treadaway (Attack The Block), Keeley Hazell (Like Crazy), Charles Dance (Game of Thrones), Jamie Foreman (Nil by Mouth, Eastenders) and Ashley Walters (Anuvahood) this is a suspense-filled drama of two cousins and their one last big job before retirement beckons.
At the top of their game, respected and revered by fellow gangsters, cousins Ray Collishaw (Craig Fairbrass) and Mickey Mannock (Frank Harper) plan the biggest robbery of their careers when a drugs drop goes awry.
Pursued by the angry Russian mob, Mickey persuades reluctant Ray to do one last job for the family. Under the guise of an England v Germany football friendly, masked by football hooliganism, Ray, Mickey, and their crack team of criminal masterminds embark on the ultimate heist.
But with the Russians hot on their trail, a wily detective (Jamie Foreman) with a vendetta, and a mole in their midst - can the boys pull it off one last time?
St George's Day is a film of balls-in-the-hand bet...
