The renowned Irish actress, Saoirse Ronan, has experienced firsthand the devastating impacts of addiction. She has witnessed the struggle of concealing bottles from those battling alcoholism within her own life. Now, she’s taking on a challenging new role in “The Outrun” where she will portray an alcoholic herself. This is a Berlinale interview that delves into her life and her upcoming role.
Saoirse Ronan is no stranger to the Hollywood spotlight. At the tender age of 14, she received her first Oscar nomination for her outstanding performance in Joe Wright’s “Atonement”. She solidified her status as a star with her role in Greta Gerwig’s critically acclaimed “Lady Bird”. The interview took place in the luxurious setting of Berlin’s Hotel de Rome. Unlike her character in the Berlinale film “The Outrun”, Saoirse sat with her hair neatly styled, a stark contrast to the shaggy blue and red hairstyle she dons in the film. Dressed in a serious black twinset, her demeanor suggested that she was ready to take on the responsibility that comes with portraying such a complex character. Her captivating blue eyes sparkled with anticipation and determination.
