Along with Branagh, singer-songwriter Eleanor McEvoy will perform her 1993 hit 'Only A Woman's Heart'.
Belfast director Kennett Branagh is set to be a guest on RTE's The Late Late Show tomorrow night ahead of the film's theatrical release.
Also joining host Ryan Tubridy are Kathryn Thomas from Operation Transformation and FIFA Consultant Lisa Fallon, while the musical highlight will be provided by Eleanor McEvoy, who will perform her maga-hit 'A Woman's Heart'.
Branagh will be joining the programme from London to discuss the personal connection he has to the new film. Belfast is already receiving praise from critics and was the only Irish winner at this year's Golden Globes. The semi-autobiographical film made a showing at the awards with six nominations and one win for Best Screenplay.
The film will land in Irish cinemas tomorrow night (January 21). Check out an extract from Branagh's upcoming interview with Hot Press - set to appear in our January 27th issue - where the acclaimed director speaks about Van Morrison's unique addition to the film, here.
Fellow RTE presenter Kathryn Thomas, and the leaders on Operation Transformation, will be on to discuss refocusing on health in the new year and the team's plans for 2022. The programme started back on January 5th and will continue on for eight weeks, but has attracted concerns from the public over its potential triggers for those suffering with eating disorders.
Lisa Fallon, former head coach with Galway United Football Club and current high-performance consultant with FIFA, will discuss rising to the top of the football business, as a woman in a male-dominated field. Fallon will also discuss how a serious assault guided her world view from a young age.
