Saoirse ronan

It can be said that Saoirse Ronan was born the day before yesterday, specifically on April 12, 1994, in New York. At the age of three she moved to live in Ireland, the land of her ancestors. There she grew up, she has her school and her parents, with whom she lives as well as her beloved dog Sassy. She has inherited her vocation from her father, who is also an actor. About to turn 14 years old, the little girl opts for the Oscar for best supporting actress for Atonement , while she consolidates herself in the cinematographic world, which she seems to have made for her.

Saoirse got her first break in 2003 on the TV series The Clinic . Her first steps were in this medium, where she also participated in the Proof series . For her film debut, she was fortunate to work alongside Michelle Pfeiffer in My Mother’s Boyfriend (2007). Despite the fact that the tape is not particularly memorable, it served the little girl not only to be with Pfeiffer – whose daughter she was in fiction – but also to enter Hollywood. She soon after had a small role in The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey.(2007), a title with little significance. However, that same year she was chosen to play Briony Tallis at the age of 13, or what is the same, Keira Knightley ‘s crazy sister in Atonement . A role she in the mature version of her was played by Vanessa Redgrave . With the film directed by Joe Wright , not only has he received an Oscar nomination, but also the opportunity to work on a good project, surrounded by good professionals, as reflected by the fact that this year he is one of the favorites in the delivery of the golden awards.

If in My Mother’s Boyfriend Saoirse plays a more or less typical girl for her age, in Atonement she has gotten into the skin of a complex character, which is decisive for the development of the story. Young Briony is a highly intelligent girl with literary aspirations. Her overflowing imagination has caused her more than one problem, although never anything as serious as her misinterpretation of facts that lead her to accuse her sister’s boyfriend of a crime she has not committed. This film has changed the short life of the actress, who she affirms: “When I shot Atonement , I knew that I want to do this (to be an actress) for the rest of my life. It’s like a drug: once you start, you can’t stop.”

And so it has been, Ronan has continued his career at an enviable pace. She has the drama about the magician Houdini Death Defying Acts pending its premiere in Spain , where she has been the daughter of Catherine Zeta-Jones . She has just finished filming City of Ember , a family adventure film, where she has shared the lead with Bill Murray , Tim Robbins and Martin Landau . She and she will star in The Lovely Bones , Peter Jackson ‘s next project . In this drama she will be the murdered daughter of Mark Wahlberg and Rachel Weisz ., with a complicated character marked by death. And it seems that this girl dares with everything. Who wants to play with dolls when they can do it with an Oscar?
