Saoirse Ronan on working with husband Jack Lowden Newlywed Saoirse Ronan has described the movie that she co-produced with husband Jack Lowden as a “life-changing experience”. Speaking at the premiere of The Outrun , which recently debuted at the Edinburgh Film Festival, the Carlow actor said her involvement in the project was all thanks to Lowden (34). The two actors married in a secret ceremony in Edinburgh last month, having got engaged last year after meeting in 2018 on the set of Mary Queen of Scots .
The four-time Oscar nominee (30) said Lowden was “so heartbroken” that he could not be at the premiere. Ronan joked how she would be his “representative” instead, as she showed off her new gold band at her first public event since tying the knot. “He’s prepping for a Scottish play that will be here next week.
For me, personally, I wouldn’t have been involved in this project, this life-changing experience, if it wasn’t for Jack Lowden,” she said. “He’s an incredibly proud Scotsman and his life’s work will be to just bring work back to Scotland, which is what we want to continue to do. “There’s so much incredible talent here, so much potential for incredible storytelling, and Jack and I have been so honoured to be a part of what we feel is the next wave of Scottish film-making.
