Actor Modine in midwest

Renowned US actor Matthew Modine, who came to fame for his role in Stanley Kubrick’s Full Metal Jacket, has been spotted filming in Bunratty Castle and Folk Park this week.

 

Modine, best known in recent years for his work on Stranger Things, is in the mid-West to work on an undisclosed film. He has been graciously making time to speak to his fans during his stay, drawing a large crowd during a recent visit to the Milk Market in Limerick.

 

Niall O’Callaghan, Managing Director of Shannon Heritage, spent some time with Mr Modine on location at Bunratty Castle and Folk Park and was effusive in his praise for the veteran actor.
