“In 1976, the McCormick brothers started the second best band in Dublin. But, as they got better, the other band always had The Edge…”

Killing Bono is a comedy about the true-ish “story of two brothers who didn’t find what they were looking for…”

The film stars the sexy as all hell Ben Barnes (Prince Caspian, Dorian Gray) and Robert Sheehan (Misfits) as the two brothers who sit and watch stunned as four of their high-school friends rise to fame as part of the biggest band in the universe, U2.

The film is directed by Nick Hamm who also directed The Hole, which starred Keira Knightley. The film will open in limited release on April 1st 2011, with a wide release *hopefully* soon to follow.

I want to see this! Looks pretty damned funny. Check out the trailer!
