Saoirse Ronan takes a walk down memory lane as she re-watches scenes from her classic works. Between 2020 and 2024, Ronan’s film career continued to demonstrate her versatility as an actor. She appeared in AMMONITE alongside Kate Winslet in 2020, playing Charlotte Murchison in the historical drama. In 2022, she took on a lighter role in SEE HOW THEY RUN as Constable Stalker, starring opposite Sam Rockwell in the 1950s-set murder mystery comedy.
The year 2024 has proved particularly significant for Ronan’s career, featuring in three notable films: THE OUTRUN, FOE (a science fiction thriller with Paul Mescal), and BLITZ, which releases on Apple TV+ on November 22, 2024. Both THE OUTRUN and BLITZ have generated considerable awards buzz.
THE OUTRUN also marked an important milestone as Ronan’s first venture into production, which she undertook alongside her husband Jack Lowden. Speaking to Digital Spy about this new role, she described it as “exactly what I needed,” explaining that it helped her “think about the bigger picture” and allowed her to focus her energy on working with others in a different capacity.
If Ronan receives Oscar nominations for either THE OUTRUN or BLITZ, it would mark her fifth nomination (potentially sixth if nominated for both). This would add to her impressive track record of Academy recognition, which began with her breakthrough role in ATONEMENT, for which she received a Best Supporting Actress nomination.
