It’s Not War Music Video

The Manic Street Preachers’ music video for (It’s Not War) Just The End Of Love was released today. In this video, Michael portrays a chess player based on Russian chess legend Garry Kasparov. We have added it to our Video Archive. Go see it, it’s great! Anna Friel is also featured in the smooch… no, sorry, I meant in the video. ;-)

Passion Of Port Talbot

In a new documentary by DCD Media, Michael will be seen returning to his home town of Port Talbot to produce the epic play The Passion. The 2 x 60-minute Passion Of Port Talbot documentary will follow him while helping the locals act out a modern version of The Passion, developed by Welsh poet Owen Sheers. The Prospect Cymru production will air in spring 2011. It was commissioned by BBC Wales’ Judith Winnan.
