She will be joined by a long list of important figures, among the most notable being Harris Dickinson, Erin Kellyman, Stephen Graham, Hayley Squires, Kathy Burke and Christopher Chung.
According to various reports on the project, the drama aims to offer a moving and humanized view of the impact of the war on civilians, shedding light on their struggles and acts of bravery during this tumultuous period.
The Outrun | 2024
Nora Fingscheidt is the director who brought “The Outrun” to the big screen, and although the release date has not yet been confirmed, it is expected to arrive sometime in 2024, starring Saoirse Ronan.
The story follows Rona, who, after living on the edge in London, tries to reconcile with her turbulent past. She returns to the wild beauty of the Orkney Islands in Scotland, where she grew up, in hopes of healing.
The renowned star is not the only one featured in the drama, as she will share the screen with other industry talents, including Saskia Reeves, Lauren Lyle, Stephen Dillane and Izuka Hoyle.
The narrative is based on the eponymous book written by Amy Liptrot, who also serves as co-screenwriter along with the director herself and other figures, such as Daisy Lewis (Be Good, Doctor Who and Downton Abbey).
