I just watched Hanna today. I enjoyed it and was thinking it would be cool if there was a sequel. Now knowing that Ronan is playing a young assasin again in this movie will have to do.

If you think Saoirse isn't diversifying her projects enough, check out this article.
Saoirse Ronan Ruins Lives! Wednesday, April 18, 2012 http://thefilmexperience.net/blog/2012/4/18/saoirse-ronan-ruins-lives. html The poster for Saoirse Ronan's latest Byzantium has just been released. It's a vampire movie from Neil Jordan who is no stranger to supernatural beasties (see also: The Company of Wolves, Interview with the Vampire, The Crying Games ... what? There's no other explanation for how indelibly creepy Miranda Richardson is in that movie!) Question: When will Saoirse Ronan ever be cast as a non-lethal girl again? The ridiculously talented young star (who just turned 18... god, time flies) just keeps playing killers whether literally or metaphorically. Let's review: Atonement (2007) DESTROYER OF LIVES The Lovely Bones (2009) DEAD GIRL Hanna (2011) ASSASSIN Violet and Daisy (2011 still awaiting release) ASSASSIN Byzantium (coming soon) VAMPIRE Order of the Seven (coming soon... another Snow White movie) WARRIOR The Host (coming soon) DANGEROUS POSSESSING ALIEN How I Live Now (coming soon) NORMAL GIRL THRUST INTO VIOLENT SURVIVAL MODE
Second generation vampiress Saoirse Ronan in "Byzantium" I realize she's got those spooky ice blue Pfeifferian eyes -- already well cast as La Pfeiffer's daughter in I Could Never Be Your Woman (one of her only roles without a body count) – but what is her management thinking? Diversify!
