Hope I'm not disturbing equilibrium of the set. Feel like Spock meeting Spock at the end of Star Trek. The universe will never be the same

On the set, maintaining radio silence. The screen Bono is a true doppelganger, makes me feel like I've entered a timewarp.

What a weird day that was. I got dressed as a new romantic leprechaun & dragged into a scene with my screen brother.

I am sure the costume was chosen for me by director Nick Hamm, as revenge for 6 yrs of development pin.


:lol:

so thats why he went to Belfast, he has an extra role in the movie! i wonder what character he was playing? in any case, it might've been too much to have a scene with Ben, the real Neil McCormick and Neil McCormick's doppleganger on the same scene, although goodness knows people would've gotten a kick out of that *gig. so watch out for the real Neil McCormick with Ivan McCormick's doppleganger. oy!

Hey guys! New member here (not a new fan though!) hope I'm not too late to the party! Just wanted to say I think this film looks so awesome, the pictures made me crack up - I love how Ben's confident and dedicated enough to do such scary things to his hair! I so wish I lived in Ireland so I could get involved...

I was wondering, have any of you read the book it's based on, and if so would you recommend it?

Oh, and I was browsing Neil McCormick's twitter page before and I spotted these new tweets. Thought you might be interested:

Quote:
@steelsheen less cameo, more fleeting glimpse, I suspect. Its a kind of all hands on deck approach to casting, any strays get roped in.


Quote:
Another day on set, watching my younger self playing a gig. If only I knew then what I know now. Like when to quit.


Quote:
Greeted on the set by actors: "Hey, Real Neil!". This is my new name.


That last one in particular made me howl with laughter! Real Neil's such a funny guy.
