We’ll admit it; we’ve got a major crush on both Ben Barnes and Robert Sheehan. They’re both just so lovely to look at. And today we’ve learned they’re still lovely to look at even when they’re dressed up in slightly dodgy 80s rock star grab. The boys look hot with a capital 'H' in this music video made for their new movie Killing Bono. We certainly fancy the boys way more than Bono.
So what’s Kiling Bono (out today) all about then you ask? Here’s a handy synopsis for you…
Killing Bono is a rock n’ roll comedy about two Irish brothers struggling to forge their path through the 1980’s music scene… whilst the meteoric rise to fame of their old school pals U2 only serves to cast them deeper into the shadows.
Neil McCormick always knew he’d be famous. A young Irish songwriter and budding genius, nothing less than a life of rock n’ roll stardom will do. But there’s only room for one singer in school band The Hype and his friend Paul’s already bagged the job. So Neil forms his own band with his brother Ivan, determined to leave The Hype in his wake. There’s only one problem: The Hype have changed their name. To U2. And Paul has turned into Bono.
Naturally there’s only one option for Neil: become bigger than U2. The brothers head to London in their quest for fame, but they are blighted by the injustices of the music industry, and their every action is dwarfed by the soaring success of their old school rivals. Then, just as they land some success of their own, Ivan discovers the shocking truth behind Neil’s rivalry with U2, and it threatens to destroy everything.
As his rock n’ roll dream crashes and burns, Neil feels like his failure is directly linked to Bono’s success. Is he the yin to Bono’s yang? Is he forever destined to live in the shadows of superstardom? And what if the answer lies in… killing Bono?
