Saoirse Ronan Reveals Axed ‘Barbie’ Cameo, Says She Helped Deliver Seven Lambs While Filming Sundance Drama ‘The Outrun’


Saoirse Ronan delivered seven lambs while filming her Sundance drama 'The Outrun.'

Adapted from Amy Liptrot’s best-selling memoir, “The Outrun” centers on Rona, a recovering alcoholic who returns home to the Orkney Islands in Scotland after spending a hard-living decade in London. Following the Sundance premiere of “The Outrun,” the 29-year-old actor sat down to talk about how Beyonce’s “Renaissance” helped her prepare for one of her meatiest and most demanding roles while also revealing a planned “ Barbie ” cameo that never came to pass.
