Saoirse Ronan in an adventure
Wednesday, July 16th, 2008Saoirse Ronan will star in the family adventure movie The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle. The movie is based on the novel by the same name by Edward Irving Wortis, it’s about a young girl (which will be played by Saoirse of course) that has an adventure aboard a ship with a mean captain and a mutinous crew. The script was written by Danny DeVito and will also be directed by him but he won’t appear on screen. The two producers however will be in the movie; Pierce Brosnan and Morgan Freeman.
There’s no way around it; that is one impressive line up. Saoirse herself already had an Oscar nomination but working with Danny, Pierce and Morgan will just teach her a lot. The genre is right up Danny DeVito’s alley I would say, he’s the one responsible for turning Matilda into a movie with great success. So this can only be good for her.
