The UNESCO world heritage site that is Skellig Michael is located on the Wild Atlantic Way on Ireland’s west coast and has been wowing audiences since the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, where the final scenes of this record-breaking movie were filmed.
This exclusive behind the scenes video gives fans a unique insight into the film makers’ choice of Skellig Michael as a location for Star Wars & how it fit with Abram’s goal of creating a real & authentic backdrop for the movie.
Tommy Harper, the Executive producer recalls the moment they discovered the Skellig islands:
“I got an email from Rick Carter [Production Designer of Star Wars: The Force Awakens]. He sent this link, and it was Skellig Island. J.J. [Director of Star Wars: The Force Awakens] immediately wrote back and said, “I love you! This is the best.””
Since 1977, the renowned movie franchise has travelled through many galaxies, and this time, director J.J. Abrams along with cast and crew jetted into a little village called Portmagee, County Kerry, on Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way. From here, they travelled eight miles (12 Km) by sea to a dream film location, Skellig Michael, which the crew described as “from another time and place”.

ProSight Specialty® Insurance today announced the launch of Music Mends℠, a one-of-a-kind enhancement that’s unique in the traditionally-bound insurance industry. Music Mends is specially designed for touring artists, and is in response to the pain and disruption that terrorism invokes in our modern society. Specifically, the coverage is designed to provide support to touring artists who wish to help mend communities following an act of terrorism that interrupts a live performance. The cost of this enhancement is being borne by ProSight, in a demonstration of unprecedented commitment to artists and performers in the wake of a terrorist attack.
“The idea of Music Mends came to us after we attended a concert together and learned that some of the performers had been impacted by the terrorist attack in Paris at the Bataclan concert hall,” said ProSight Chief Underwriting Officer Bob Bailey, speaking of himself and Joe Beneducci, ProSight’s founder and CEO. “The raw emotion from the band that night was evident, and we knew we needed to do something to help support artists who want to go back and perform for their fans. That’s when the idea for Music Mends was born.”
