‘Kneecap’ Getting Irish Re-Release Following BAFTA Nomination Success (EXCLUSIVE)

“ Kneecap,” Rich Peppiatt’s acclaimed comedy-biopic about the Belfast rap trio of the same name, is heading back to Irish cinemas this week after landing six BAFTA nominations. There’s hope that its ongoing award season success — and growing optimism that the feature will be nominated for an Oscar later this week — will help it achieve even more in local cinemas. “We are so excited to be bringing ‘Kneecap’ back to Irish cinemas on the 1-year anniversary of its historic world premiere at Sundance, where this mad campaign began,” said Gillian Cooper, Wildcard’s head of distribution.
