Dornan: Into Film Ambassador

In a significant move supporting young filmmakers, renowned actor Jamie Dornan (THE TOURIST, HEART OF STONE) has been appointed as the new Industry Ambassador for Northern Ireland and Patron of Into Film’s Every Child a Filmmaker initiative. This prestigious role marks Dornan’s commitment to nurturing emerging talent in the film industry, particularly focusing on supporting young people from diverse backgrounds.

Dornan expressed deep enthusiasm for his new position, stating, “I hugely admire Into Film’s work with children and young people, and I am excited and honoured to be a new Into Film Ambassador for Northern Ireland and Patron of Into Film’s Every Child a Filmmaker initiative.” His personal mission aligns closely with the organization’s goals – empowering young people to access opportunities within the screen industries and encouraging them to tell their own stories through film.

Into Film’s CEO Fiona Evans highlighted Dornan’s impact, recalling his inspiring presence at the organization’s awards ceremony last June. “I couldn’t be more excited to welcome Jamie Dornan as our new Into Film Ambassador for Northern Ireland,” Evans said, emphasizing the actor’s potential to motivate and support the next generation of filmmakers.

This appointment builds upon Dornan’s successful film career, leveraging his experience and Northern Irish roots to create meaningful opportunities for young aspiring filmmakers. The role allows him to give back to the community and support a cause close to his heart – providing accessible film education and creative opportunities for young people.

The appointment comes at a crucial time, as Into Film continues its mission to provide free film education programs to UK state schools, colleges, and youth settings, supported by organizations like the BFI and Northern Ireland Screen.

By taking on this ambassadorial role, Dornan not only continues to elevate his profile beyond acting but also demonstrates a profound commitment to supporting artistic development among youth.
