Cillian Murphy and Yvonne McGuinness Purchase Iconic Phoenix Cinema in Ireland
Actor Cillian Murphy and artist Yvonne McGuinness have successfully purchased the historic Phoenix Cinema in Daingean Uí Chúis, Co Kerry, aiming to refurbish and reopen it while enhancing its creative potential. The cinema, which has played a significant role in the community for over 100 years, is Ireland’s only cinema in a Gaeltacht area, and its new owners plan to reflect that in their programming. Local residents welcome the couple’s efforts to preserve this cultural landmark.
