Death of a Superhero goes on release in Irish Cinemas today November 30

Director Ian Fitzgibbon's ( A Film With Me In It, Perrier's Bounty, Paths to Freedom, Moone Boy) latest feature DEATH OF A SUPERHERO tells the story of fourteen-year-old Donald Clarke who after several cycles of chemotherapy feels he has little left to hope for. Worst of all, he might die a virgin!

Based on the best-selling novel by Anthony McCarten DEATH OF A SUPERHERO is a poignant coming-of-age story addressing the most painful of circumstances alongside a rich and often humorous treatment of classic teen preoccupations.

With its innovative mix of live action and animation, DEATH OF A SUPERHERO stars Andy Serkis (Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit), Thomas Brodie-Sangster (Love Actually, Nowhere Boy) and  Aisling Loftus (Oranges and Sunshine) and is produced by Dublin based Grand Pictures and German company Bavaria Pictures.
