What exactly the story of the film will be is not yet known. As Knight explains in an NME interview, viewers are meant to go through a whole range of emotions:
[Fans will be] shocked and thrilled and terrified. And then thrilled and shocked again. […] We will start filming in September. It’s going to be a big step forward and it’s great that fans can come together in one place and watch the film. The budget is bigger. Cillian is on fire. So I can’t wait.
