Ireland appears to be everywhere on screen at the minute — and it isn’t just a trend.
Where 2022 and 2023 had “The Banshees of Inisherin,” Paul Mescal, “The Quiet Girl” and short film “The Irish Goodbye” making noise throughout awards season, plus John Carney’s “Flora and Son” being snapped up in Sundance by Apple TV+, 2024 has already shown that the Irish industry has become a global force.
Cillian Murphy — who is expected to soon add to his BAFTA leading actor win for “Oppenheimer” with an Oscar — leads the charge this time, followed by “Saltburn” star Barry Keoghan. There’s also Yorgos Lanthimos’ awards-favorite “Poor Things,” produced by Irish powerhouse studio Element Pictures and shot by Dubliner Robbie Ryan (who earned his second Oscar nomination for the film). The Murphy-led and -produced Irish indie “Small Things Like These” just opened the Berlinale to rave reviews, while raucous music biopic “Kneecap...

Actress Lisa Rinna described the conditions on the set of “Days of Our Lives” under the helm of director/EP Albert Alarr as “disgusting” after he was accused of misconduct such as groping on the Peacock soap opera.
In a post to Instagram, Rinna, who last returned to play her 1990s character Billie Reed during a one-week stint in 2018, wrote, “Well, this took a long time… I couldn’t believe the work environment. It was disgusting, I was shocked. I let many people know, Albert included, and they didn’t do a thing until now, it seems.”
Alarr also stands accused of the retaliatory firing of one star after she complained about his handling of an intimate scene.
“It’s kind of a running joke that everything that comes out of Albert’s mouth is inappropriate,” a veteran cast member told Deadline in a story that ran on Tuesday about...
