After turning heads in Apple TV+ comedy series 'Bad Sisters,' the rising Irish star takes the lead in the latest music-soaked feature from the 'Sing Street' and 'Once' writer-director, premiering in Park City.
ahead of the premiere, Hewson — who also happens the be the second eldest child of U2 frontman Bono — discusses overcoming a “massive, massive fear” of singing in the movie, and why she never turned to her dad for musical tips: “I’d rather sing in front of the entire world.”heading to Sundance. Correct me if I’m wrong, but is this your first leading film role?, many years ago. It was a tiny indie that obviously no one saw but it’s actually really good. And then I’ve done TV shows as well.
It sounds like a classic John Carney story. It’s been a number of years since we’ve had a film from him. Do you think people are going to loveOh yeah. It’s probably the most John movie John has ever made. What I love about it, and what I wish I saw more in theaters, was that it takes you on a journey. As a film is supposed to. It’s a story about these characters living together trying to coexist and it’s not based on a book or superhero or any of those things.
Sorry to ask this, but obviously your dad is pretty well known for his music skills. Did you get any singing tips or run any of the songs past him? Not until they were done. Because I knew that he would start to come in with lots of ideas to help me with my singing. And I have to say, I would rather sing in front of the entire world than for my dad. It would be terrifying. I mean, he’s a really, really good singer. So he was very sweet and wanted to help and I was just like, no. But he got to hear the finished product and loved it. But yeah, otherwise, he was just gonna get in my head.
