Neeson presents SPIRIT OF IRELAND award
November 20
Two of Hollywood’s most respected actors shared a touching moment at the 25th annual Irish Arts Center Gala, where Liam Neeson (ABSOLUTION), an honorary chair of the New York City-based center, presented his dear friend Meryl Streep with the Spirit of Ireland Award. Their friendship, which blossomed after co-starring in the 1996 film , BEFORE AND AFTER, has endured for decades. In accepting the honor (previously bestowed on Stephen Colbert), Streep, the most Oscar-nominated actor in history with 21 nominations and three wins, delved into her rich Irish heritage. She traced her lineage to her great-great-grandmother Grace Strain, who was born in County Donegal in the 1830s. Grace’s journey took her to Philadelphia at age 14, where she met her husband Manus McFadden, eventually leading to the family’s settlement in New Jersey, where Streep was born. The award ceremony highlighted not only Streep’s impressive career but also her ongoing connection to Irish arts. She recalled her previous support of Irish culture, including her participation in a fundraising event for a Belfast arts center during the filming of MAMMA MIA in 2007.

Ronan shines in Elle magazine feature
November 19
In a revealing new interview with ELLE magazine, Irish actress Saoirse Ronan shares lots of personal details. Ronan stands at a fascinating turning point in her career, taking on roles that challenge her accessible image. Her latest venture, THE OUTRUN, sees her not only starring but stepping into a producer role alongside her husband, Jack Lowden. The film, based on a memoir, pushed Ronan to explore the complex territory of addiction recovery – a subject that hits close to home. “Addiction touched my life through people I love,” she reveals, her voice softening. “You start with anger, with this impossible question: ‘Why can’t they just stop?’ But gradually, you learn to see it as the illness it truly is.” She pauses, considering her words carefully. “Taking on this role became my way of processing that journey, of understanding what I couldn’t before.” This introspective project runs parallel to her work in Steve McQueen’s BLITZ, a World War II drama that strips away the polished veneer of historical cinema. As a mother to a biracial child in war-torn London, Ronan confronts the uglier truths of British society during the Blitz – the racism that persisted even as bombs fell. The role marked several firsts: her debut as an on-screen mother and her first time performing musical numbers, for which she underwent intensive vocal training. There’s a newfound boldness in how Ronan approaches her craft these days. “I used to worry about looking pretty, about staying within the lines,” she admits, deliberately contorting her face to make a point. “Now? I’m more interested in the mess, in the uncomfortable moments that make characters real.” The conversation shifts to her upcoming directorial debut, a short film she’s writing. Her eyes light up when discussing how Greta Gerwig’s evolution from actor to filmmaker has inspired her own ambitions behind the camera. Yet there’s a touch of playful regret when she mentions missing out on BARBIE, alongside her frequent co-star Timothée Chalamet, due to scheduling conflicts. She laughs about it now: “We’re like jealous siblings, watching our favorite director make magic without us.” At 29, Ronan has already spent two decades in front of the camera, but she’s clearly just getting started. Her trajectory suggests an artist increasingly willing to push boundaries, whether through producing, directing, or taking on roles that scrape away at her comfortable image as cinema’s approachable ingenue.

Andrew Scott at GLADIATOR 2 premiere
November 14
Maynooth native Paul Mescal was the star of the show last night as the world premiere of GLADIATOR II took place in London’s Leicester Square. The Normal People actor, who plays the role of Lucius in the highly anticipated sequel, walked the red carpet alongside a host of his co-stars, including Denzel Washington, Connie Nielsen, and Pedro Pascal, as well as director Ridley Scott. Mescal was supported at the event by his friend and fellow Irish actor Andrew Scott, known for his roles in FLEABAG and SHERLOCK. The two actors, who recently starred together in the film ALL OF US STRANGERS, shared a warm embrace as they made their way into the screening, highlighting their close on-screen relationship. Last week, Mescal received a similarly enthusiastic welcome in Dublin, where the Irish premiere of GLADIATOR II was held at the Lighthouse Cinema. The actor spent an hour chatting with fans before the screening, admitting that he never expected the film to be “as big” as it has turned out to be. Set decades after the events of the original 2000 Oscar-winning film, GLADIATOR II sees Mescal’s character Lucius, the grandson of the former Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius, forced into slavery and fighting as a gladiator after his town is invaded by Roman soldiers. Mescal’s performance as the lead in this highly anticipated sequel is sure to cement his status as one of the most exciting young actors working today.

SAY NOTHING on Hulu Nov 14
November 13
FX’s limited series SAY NOTHING is a gripping story of murder and memory in Northern Ireland during The Troubles. The 9-episode series is based on the book by Patrick Radden Keefe. Spanning four decades, the series opens with the shocking disappearance of Jean McConville, a single mother of ten who was abducted from her home in 1972 and never seen alive again. Telling the story of various Irish Republican Army (IRA) members, SAY NOTHING explores the extremes some people will go to in the name of their beliefs, the way a deeply divided society can suddenly tip over into armed conflict, the long shadow of radical violence for all affected, and the emotional and psychological costs of a code of silence. The series stars rising Irish actress Lola Pettigrew as Dolours Price. Pettigrew has garnered attention for her powerful performances in films like DATING AMBER (2020), where she played the lead role of Amber, and HERE ARE THE YOUNG MEN (2020). She earned critical acclaim for her role in the BBC drama THREE FAMILIES (2021) and has demonstrated her range in theatrical productions across Ireland and the UK. Her casting as Dolours Price follows her notable turn in ROGUE AGENT (2022) alongside James Norton and Gemma Arterton. Alongside Pettigrew, Hazel Doupe stars as Marian Price, Anthony Boyle as Brendan Hughes, a charismatic but conflicted military strategist, and Josh Finan as Gerry Adams, a leading political operator who would go on to negotiate peace and has always denied having any involvement with the IRA. Maxine Peake stars as Older Dolours Price. SAY NOTHING is executive produced by Nina Jacobson and Brad Simpson of Color Force, creator Joshua Zetumer, Patrick Radden Keefe, Edward McDonnell, Monica Levinson and Northern Ireland native Michael Lennox. The series is produced by FX Productions.

Niamh Algar in PLAYING NICE
November 12
Based on J. P. Delaney’s psychological thriller, this new TV series unfolds against the stunning backdrop of the Cornish countryside and coast. At its heart lies an unthinkable situation: two couples discover their toddlers were switched at birth in a hospital mix-up. The story poses a heart-wrenching question: should these parents keep the children they’ve raised and loved, or switch them back to their biological families? While they initially try to resolve the situation together, trust begins to erode. What starts as a mutual dilemma evolves into a tense situation when one couple suspects the other of harboring hidden motives, leading to desperate measures to protect their family. Niamh Algar, who takes on the pivotal role of Maddie, has recently established herself as one of television’s most compelling performers. Her powerful turn in THE WONDER opposite Florence Pugh garnered critical acclaim, while her recent portrayal of Anne Villiers in MARY AND GEORGE showcases her versatility as an actress. She also earned BAFTA nominations for her work in CALM WITH HORSES and DECEIT, cementing her reputation as one of the industry’s most dynamic rising stars.

This builds on his praised performance that began in 2022’s THE BATMAN, where he first transformed into Oswald “Oz” Cobblepot through extensive prosthetics and makeup. Despite initially declaring, “I never want to put that fucking suit and that f**king head on again,” Farrell’s stance shifted after the show’s success. His complete transformation, requiring 4-5 hours of daily makeup application, has garnered widespread acclaim. Recently, he expressed interest in a second season, noting, “I do believe I know him better than anyone now.” The eight-episode series, which follows Cobblepot’s rise in Gotham’s criminal underworld, has earned an 8.8/10 on IMDB and 95 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. While Farrell’s performance anchors the show, the stellar cast includes standout performances from Cristin Milioti as Sofia Falcone, Deirdre O’Connell as Francis Cobb, and Rhenzy Feliz as Victor Aguilar. Originally planned as a limited series bridging 2022’s THE BATMAN with the 2026 sequel, the show’s success has sparked discussions about continuation. Farrell’s dedication to the role included remaining in character throughout filming, even wearing a ski mask when not in makeup – a commitment that has resonated strongly with audiences who note how completely he disappears into the character.

Keoghan on THE LOUIS THEROUX PODCAST
November 5
In a revealing interview on THE LOUIS THEROUX PODCAST, actor Barry Keoghan shared intimate details about his challenging upbringing and a harrowing medical emergency that almost derailed his role in The Banshees of Inisherin. Speaking with Theroux on the podcast’s third season, Keoghan reflected on his complex childhood in Ireland’s foster care system, where he lived with 13 different families. The actor spoke warmly of his mother, who battled heroin addiction, describing her as “lovely” and “gorgeous.” He recalled the emotional toll of foster care transitions: “You don’t forget waiting on the social worker steps and waiting for the new family to come and play with you in the playground they have in the office and see if it’s going to work.” The conversation took a dramatic turn when Keoghan discussed his brush with death in 2021. Just before filming THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN, he contracted necrotizing fasciitis—a severe flesh-eating bacterial infection—following what he described as “a disagreement in a pub” involving a bottle. The infection became so severe that doctors considered amputation of his arm. “That was quite a scary experience,” Keoghan revealed, noting that director Martin McDonagh visited him in the hospital, concerned about his ability to perform in the film. The interview, featuring the star of THE BATMAN and the upcoming PEAKY BLINDERS film, is available on Spotify from November 5.

Brosnan joins CLIFFHANGER reboot
November 1
Pierce Brosnan is ready to rock with their reboot of CLIFFHANGER, following his role in the historical action film FAST CHARLIE (2024), in which he played a hitman seeking revenge. Principal photography commenced in Austria for an updated take on the 1993 film of the same name that starred Sylvester Stallone. Jaume Collet-Serra directs the new movie that is planning a theatrical release and hails from Rocket Science, in partnership with Thank You Pictures and Supernix. The CLIFFHANGER reboot centers on mountaineer Ray Cooper (Brosnan), who runs a chalet with his daughter in the Dolomites, a mountain range in Italy. When the pair are kidnapped, older daughter Naomi (James) — still dealing with trauma from a previous climbing incident — must overcome her past to save her family. The original CLIFFHANGER hit theaters in May 1993 from TriStar Pictures and collected $255 million at the global box office. Stallone starred for director Renny Harlin as a mountain climber enlisted to help track down suitcases full of stolen cash in the Rocky Mountains.

ABSOLUTION in theatres Nov 1
October 30
Action star Liam Neeson takes a grittier turn in ABSOLUTION diverging from his recent string of thrillers to play a weathered Boston mob enforcer grappling with a degenerative brain condition. At 72, Neeson continues to command the screen, though this role marks a departure from his usual righteous heroes in films like TAKEN and THE ICE ROAD. Here, he portrays an ex-boxer turned criminal whose violent past catches up with him through CTE (chronic traumatic encephalopathy). “The role resonated deeply with me,” Neeson shared via Zoom, drawing parallels to his own boxing background in Northern Ireland from ages 9 to 17. “I’ve seen firsthand how this condition affects athletes, from ice hockey players to boxers I knew back home.” The film, originally titled THUG, follows Neeson’s character as his mental deterioration forces him to confront his criminal legacy, including his role in sex trafficking and his estrangement from his daughter and grandson. “I wanted a stripped-down approach,” Neeson explained of his portrayal, describing his character’s ’70s-style leather jacket and distinctive mustache and sideburns. While many of Neeson’s recent action roles, from MEMORY to BLACKLIGHT, have showcased his particular set of skills as a heroic figure, ABSOLUTION allows him to explore darker territory. The film places him firmly on the other side of the law, though his character ultimately seeks redemption. Interestingly, Neeson expresses disappointment with the final title ABSOLUTION, feeling it tips the film’s hand regarding its Catholic themes of confession and forgiveness. “I much prefer THUG” he admitted, suggesting the simpler title better captured his character’s essence.

CRÁ gets November release
October 29
A chilling new crime drama is about to hit our screens this November, as BBC Northern Ireland prepares to launch its latest series, CRÁ. The show, which will also be available on BBC iPlayer, has just released an intriguing set of first-look photos that promise a dark and gripping tale from the Emerald Isle. Set against the backdrop of a remote village in northwest Ireland, this six-part series follows a haunting discovery that shatters the community’s carefully maintained silence. When Garda officer Barry Roche unearths a body in a local bog, what seems like a routine investigation quickly becomes deeply personal for his colleague, Conall Ó Súilleabháin. The victim is identified as Conall’s mother, who vanished without a trace 15 years ago. Forced to step away from the official investigation due to his personal connection, Conall refuses to let the truth stay buried. He forms an unlikely alliance with a true-crime podcast journalist, and together they begin peeling back the layers of secrecy that have smothered the village for years. Their investigation promises to uncover the dark secrets that lurk beneath the surface of this seemingly peaceful community. The series features an impressive ensemble cast of Irish talent, including Dónall Ó Héalai, Alex Murphy, Hannah Brady, Barry McGovern, Róisín Murphy, Tara Breathnach, Caoimhe Farren, and Alan Mahon. Adding to its authenticity, CRÁ will be presented in Irish with English subtitles, offering viewers an immersive experience into the heart of Irish culture and storytelling. Stay tuned for the exact premiere date, which will be announced soon. This November, prepare to uncover the truth that lies buried in the bog.

Hewson to star in DOWNFORCE
October 28
Racing dynasties and family drama collide in Hulu’s newly announced pilot DOWNFORCE, which will pair Bono’s daughter Eve Hewson with Emmy winner Murray Bartlett (THE WHITE LOTUS). The comedy series centers on the tense reunion between Victoria, a cutthroat investment banker played by Hewson, and her estranged father Sir Trevor, portrayed by Bartlett. When circumstances force Victoria to return to her family’s prestigious racing empire, father and daughter must reconcile their differences—and their competing expertise—to preserve the team’s storied reputation. Bartlett takes on the role of the charismatic Sir Trevor, the racing outfit’s bombastic founder, while Hewson portrays his business-savvy daughter Victoria, whose financial acumen could either save or destroy her father’s legacy. The show explores whether their complementary skills—his racing knowledge and her business prowess—can overcome years of separation. The announcement comes as Hewson basks in the glory of her latest project, Netflix’s mystery drama THE PERFECT COUPLE, now streaming.

SMALL THINGS LIKE THESE in theatres Nov 1
October 26
SMALL THINGS LIKE THESE arrives in cinemas on November 1, marking another significant milestone in Murphy’s increasingly impressive filmography. In his latest venture, Murphy, 48, portrays Bill Furlong in a period drama set in 1985 Ireland. The film, which he personally championed, originated during his time on the OPPENHEIMER set, where he pitched the concept to Matt Damon, describing it as “a little bit Manchester By The Sea meets Doubt.” Damon’s production company, Artist’s Equity, later took on the project. Based on Claire Keegan’s acclaimed novel, Murphy speaks passionately about the adaptation: “Claire’s story was so perfect and magnificent in its brevity and what it captured, and it moved people and I felt for us, it was our challenge to kind of make a film that did justice to the novel. I never would like to be prescriptive about what people take from film. I just hope that they enjoy it and that maybe, maybe it gets them talking.” Neeson presents SPIRIT OF IRELAND awardirishfilmtvNovember 20, 2024Two of Hollywood’s most respected actors shared a touching moment at the 25th annual Irish Arts Center Gala, where Liam Neeson (ABSOLUTION), an honorary chair of the New York City-based center, presented his dear friend Meryl Streep with the Spirit of Ireland Award.

Ronan honours Mescal
October 22
Irish cinema continues to shine on the global stage as acclaimed actress Saoirse Ronan presented fellow countryman Paul Mescal with the prestigious vantage award at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures gala event in Los Angeles. Mescal, who first captured audiences’ hearts in the hit series NORMAL PEOPLE, has since proven his versatility with an Oscar-nominated performance in AFTERSUN and is now poised to step into one of the most anticipated roles of his career in GLADIATOR II. The 28-year-old actor’s rapid ascent in Hollywood was celebrated by Ronan, 30, who had recently shared the screen with him in the science fiction psychological thriller FOE. The vantage award, which recognizes emerging artists who challenge conventional cinema narratives, seems particularly fitting for Mescal, whose thoughtful performance choices have consistently pushed boundaries in contemporary storytelling. This recognition at the gala’s fourth annual event further cements both actors’ positions as leading figures in a new generation of Irish talent making waves in international cinema. Their collaboration in FOE and their continued support of each other’s success highlights the strong bonds within the Irish acting community, even as they make their mark on the global stage.
