Sing Street is set to be one of the unmissable movies this summer as John Carney returns to the director's chair. And two great new clips from the film have been unveiled.

Carney is no stranger to this genre of film as he has already brought us Begin Again and the critically acclaimed Once in recent years - I am excited to see what he delivers this time around.

As well as being in the director's chair, Carney has also penned the film's screenplay.

Sing Street is set to hit the big screen later this month and we have two terrific clips to whet your appetite. Take a look:

The director has assembled a fantastic cast of established talent and up and coming stars as Ferdia Walsh-Peelo, Lucy Boynton, Jack Reynor, Maria Doyle Kennedy, and Aidan Gillen are all set to star.

Sing Street takes us back to 1980s Dublin where an economic recession forces Conor out of his comfortable private school and into survival mode at the inner-city public school where the kids are rough and the teachers are rougher. He finds a glimmer of hope in the mysterious and über-cool Raphina, and with the aim of winning her heart he invites her to star in his band's music videos.

She agrees, and now Conor must deliver what he's promised -calling himself 'Cosmo' and immersing himself in the vibrant rock music trends of the '80s, he forms a band with a few lads, and the group pours their hearts into writing lyrics and shooting videos.

Sing Street premiered at the Sundance Film Festival at the beginning of the year, where its charm won over critics and audiences. It really is set to be a film that's not to be missed this May.

Sing Street is released 20th May.
