Critically Acclaimed Cyberheist Thriller LifeHack opens May 15, 2026 exclusively in Vue Cinemas

Triple Media Film and Source Entertainment will release critically acclaimed cyber-heist thriller, LifeHack, in the UK, exclusively with the Vue Cinema chain. The film which currently holds a 100% score from critics on Rotten Tomatoes, will open on May 15, 2026. LifeHack was nominated for two 2025 British Independent Film Awards following its world premiere at SXSW last year, where it debuted to rave reviews.
LifeHack will open at the Vue West End, Bromley, Croydon Purley Way, Finchley Road, Fulham Broadway, Islington, Romford, Shepherds Bush, Westfield and Westfield Stratford.
The thriller is directed by Irish filmmaker Ronan Corrigan, in his feature film debut, from a screenplay by Corrigan and Hope Elliott Kemp. The film comes from “Unfriended,” “Searching” and “Missing” producer Timur Bekmambetov who produces alongside Joann Kushner, Sasha Kletsov, with Bazelevs and Screenlife Liverpool serving as production companies. Academy Award nominee Michael Fassbender executive produces with his partners Daniel Emmerson and Conor McCaughan at DMC Film.

Inspired by true events, LifeHack follows Kyle and his crew of digital Robin Hoods who hack scammers and steal from the people the internet loves to hate, all from the comfort of their bedrooms. But when they go after a notorious crypto billionaire, their biggest cyber heist forces them into a world where payback is no longer virtual. LifeHack stars Georgie Farmer (Wednesday), Yasmin Finney (Heartstopper), Roman Hayeck-Green (Sex Education), content creator James Scholz, Jessica Reynolds (Kneecap, Outlander), and Charlie Creed-Miles (Peaky Blinders, Silent Witness).

In his review, Variety film critic Siddhant Adlakha wrote, “LifeHack” finds deft balance between its heist elements and its quiet moments of character. All of these prove immensely entertaining. With a techno soundtrack that keeps things propulsive, the movie never slows down, even when it takes a breather.”
“Ronan is a special filmmaker and did an amazing job with LifeHack. We’re very proud to be a part of it at DMC and to continue our work supporting emerging Irish and British talent,” said executive producer Michael Fassbender.

Filmmaker Corrigan said, “This film was a love letter to my teenage years growing up gaming, and to all the insane true crime stories that have come out of these online spaces. Making this film was the equivalent of pulling off a heist with the small, scrappy crew we had. I’m beyond excited for it to be hitting theatres!”

“Most movies miss the mark on what it’s like to be young today, but this one nails it. It was made by an incredibly talented cast and crew, all in their twenties, and you can feel that raw, unfiltered energy in every frame,” said producer Timur Bekmambetov.

“LifeHack feels incredibly current,” said Mark Rupp, CFO/COO and Co-Founder of Iconic Events Releasing. “It’s a smart, high-stakes thriller that will connect with today’s audiences. We’re excited to bring it to theatres nationwide this May.”
