The Irish stars of Wheatley's 'Free Fire' will hit the red carpet at Dublin's Savoy Cinema for the exclusive Audi Gala screening on Thursday February 23rd, 2017.

Audi Dublin International Film Festival today announced the dates for the 2017 festival which will run from February 16th to 26th next year.

Murphy and Reynor are just some of the A-list guests lined up (and currently under wraps) for the festival, which will also feature more gala events during its run.

Speaking about the festival, 'Free Fire' director said: "It’s always very exciting to have a film at the Audi Dublin International Film Festival. Showing Free Fire feels particularly satisfying as two of its stars, Jack Reynor and Cillian Murphy, were in the audience for the screening of High-Rise in Dublin last year. Afterwards they took me out and showed me the town, and we gently drank fizzy water and were all done and dusted by 11 at night. Just how I like it. This year I hope to have some more of this moderate, sensible fun."

We're pretty sure we can organise that if you want it Ben.

Tickets for the festival are on sale now at diff.ie.
