Kieran Burt

Kieran Burt joined Ready Steady Cut in October 2022 as a Senior Staff Writer, bringing knowledge in various universes and entertainment, including Star Wars, DC, and the MCU. Since then, Kieran has covered movies, TV shows, true crime, and reality shows.

Kieran is also a freelance journalist. He received a postgraduate degree in Magazine Journalism from Nottingham Trent University in 2023 and is a qualified NCTJ journalist.

The two franchises he talks about to anyone who will listen are Star Wars and Marvel, especially their political inspirations and messages. When he finally shuts up about that, Kieran also likes to talk about DC, The Boys, Lord of the Rings, and film and TV news in general.

While film and TV are his main areas of expertise, Kieran also has a working knowledge and passion for video games, with Assassin’s Creed being his favorite gaming franchise. His journalistic experience has also contributed to producing comprehensive true crime stories and reality show features.
