Speaking in Dublin late on Sunday the director
Joel Schumacher confirmed Farrell would team up
with him again in he movie. "Yes, Colin will have
a small cameo role in the film. He
is due back in April to do his scenes." Farrell has
previously starred in Schumacher movies Tigerland
and Phone Booth.
The
director continued on about how he first heard about
the subject of his current film Veronica Guerin.
"I
did not know about Veronica until Jerry offered me
this film and I said yes after only reading the script
half way because there was a 60 minutes show that
came with the script. She is really a heroine in the
classic sense of the word as she is a complex individual.
She was not a Saint. She was a real human being. She
is a real flesh and blood person and brilliant women.
She is one of those people who did the things we which
we wish we could do and she paid the price. I admire
her so much."
Jerry
Bruckheimer is one of Hollywood's most powerful
men. He has in the past made films such as Con
Air, The Rock, Top Gun, Black Hawk Down and Enemy
of the State. This
is his first film and his first time in Ireland. So
is he planning to come back again for some more movies?
"We are already developing a project to bring a movie
in here called King Arthur later this year.
It's a retelling of the tale. It actually happened
much earlier than movies in the past or the English
have put on it. They changed the way it was told.
Like Arthur was really Roman and the Knights of the
round table were actually Russian and were great horse
men."
How
did you decide about the Veronica story? "I personally
like to tell stories about people who made a difference
in the world and those who are role models for future
generations. Like this lady changed things in Ireland
and the way people thought about drugs. We want other
generations to know about her and even though she
was well known here she was not well known around
the world."
