Saoirse Ronan: Cinemagic International Film & Television Festival!

Saoirse Ronan brightens up in a yellow top as she poses for pics to launch the Coca-Cola Cinemagic International Film and Television Festival for Young People held at the Burlington Hotel in Dublin, Ireland on Tuesday afternoon (May 11).

The 17-year-old actress is a patron of the charity which aims to inspire, educate and entertain young people.

It was just recently announced that Saoirse has nabbed the lead role in the film adaption of Stephenie Meyer‘s The Host.

Saoirse will play Melanie, one of the last humans putting up a fight against an alien species called Souls — parasites who invade human bodies, fuse to each person’s consciousness and systematically erase their personalities.
