Saoirse Ronan turns heads in a shimmering minidress at the screening of her film Cast Away at the Berlin International Film Festival.

Saoirse Ronan looked glamorous as she attended the screening of her new film Overtake at the Berlin International Film Festival on Saturday.

The 29-year-old actress looked incredible as she walked the red carpet in a shimmering silver patterned minidress.

The Oscar nominee paired it with a white sheer skirt and added height to her figure with heels.

Wearing her blonde locks into a bob, the Lady Bird star highlighted her natural beauty with a subtle makeup palette.

Saoirse was joined at the premiere by her co-star Paapa Essiedu, who looked dapper in a white jacket and black trousers.

Outrun follows a young woman named Rhona who returns home to the Orkney Islands in Scotland after recently leaving rehab for alcoholism.

The film, which also stars Game of Thrones actor Stephen Dillane, had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in January.

It comes after the Little Women star revealed the immense pride she takes in calling herself an Irish actress and paid tribute to the “brave” women who came before her.

Saoirse, who was born in New York to wealthy parents, admitted her roots are “an incredible lineage” and said she “doesn’t take them for granted.”

Appearing on the cover of the October issue of Harper’s Bazaar UK, Saoirse explained how important she is to her heritage.

She explained: “Think of Sinead (O’Connor), think of Sharon (Horgan), think of everyone who was around in the seventies, eighties and nineties who just didn’t give a damn and stepped away from the mold. .

“All the women have had to overcome a lot, but I think in a country like Ireland where we had such power over us in every way – physically, emotionally, spiritually, financially – it’s incredibly brave.

“What an incredible supply that has appeared. I don’t take it for granted at all.”

She added: “When you have other women in your corner, they will protect you like no other.

“If you have something that I always had from my mother, you carry it with you your whole life.”

Saoirse’s next film will be Blitz, a period drama directed by Steve McQueen and starring Leigh Gill and Harris Dickinson.
