Jamie Dornan and some of his most impressive work from last year lead a pack of nominations at this years IFTA Film & Drama Awards, scheduled to take place in Dublin, Ireland on April 8.
The Siege of Jadotville, a true story based on Irish UN troops in 1961 sent on a peace keeping mission in the Kongo at the height of the cold war, is nominated for an outstanding seven awards while BBC Drama The Fall, in which Dornan plays serial killer Paul Spector, is nominated for two. Jamie himself snagged the nomination for Actor in a Leading Role – Film for his portrayal of Commandant Pat Quinlan in Netflix’s Jadotville. Production, visual, score and Jadotville co-Star Jason O’Mara also received nominations, which we’ve listed below.
The IFTA’s are scheduled to take place at the Round Room in the Mansion House in Dublin, Ireland on Saturday April 8th, 2017. With no word yet on whether Jamie will attend, he has in the past (and won) and we’re optimistic he will again this year.
