In The Outrun, she plays Rona, a vulnerable young woman in the early stages of recovery who relocates to the Orkney Islands after receiving treatment for alcoholism at a residential rehabilitation centre. 

A subject close to her heart, the actress – who admits to having seen the impact of addiction on some of her closest friends – also co-produced the film with husband Lowden, who she married in July. 

The couple’s very Scottish ceremony was confirmed by the register of Scottish civil marriages records. 

And Saoirse says she enjoyed a strong creative bond with ‘comrade’ Jack, 34, who she curiously refers to by his full name.  

She told the Sunday Times: ‘Jack Lowden and I were trying to keep an eye on the representation of Rona, how nothing else matters to her except alcohol but also remembering that she is human, so anyone can see themselves in her.

‘If you find people that you love and you trust creatively, why would you not want to keep working with them?’

‘We have very high expectations for one another — when I tried out Rona’s Orcadian accent on him for The Outrun, he said, “You’re not doing that, are you?”‘

The actress admits she was able to draw from a deep well of experience while preparing for the role, having ‘been on the receiving end’ of the pain and damage caused by addiction.

She said: ‘I’ve watched people I love change because of addiction. There’s a helplessness you feel when you watch someone you love — friends my age and one in particular who I’m close to — go through that. 

‘What will be etched in my brain forever is that switch, when the glaze goes over someone’s eyes and they are gone. 

‘If you’ve become second best to alcohol you become resentful, so for this role I needed to put my own feeling towards it to one side. And I needed not to be angry about that any more.’
