Jack Reynor

As we bask in the glory of having multiple Irish Oscar nominees this year, established Dublin talent Jack Reynor has just revealed he is in the running for a potentially career-defining role. 

The 24-year-old is up for the much coveted part of a young Han Solo in an upcoming Star Wars spin-off film. 

The as yet unnamed flick, which is currently set for release in 2018, will follow a young Han Solo as he becomes the notorious smuggler we know and love today. 

The Irish native, who has starred in Transformers as well as Lenny Abrahamson's critically acclaimed What Richard Did, could hardly contain his excitement as he spoke about the film at the Sundance Film Festival this week. 

"Look, man, that would be kind of an incredible gig to get, wouldn’t it? Totally insane."

Though Jack is very realistic in terms of knowing that taking on such an iconic role will most definitely be a challenge.

"You’ve got to fill some pretty seriously big boots there, man. We’re talking Harrison Ford here, dude.

"He’s not a chump, you know what I mean? You can’t do an imitation, you can’t try and just emulate what that is. It’s got to be something new, and it’s also got to be something that the audience is going to respond to."

It seems like the Dublin man has his heart set on the role but he is facing serious competition from some of Hollywood's brightest up-and-coming stars. 

Also up for the role is Miles Teller, Dave Franco, Logan Lerman, Emory Cohen and Ansel Elgort. 

We're rooting for you, Jack!

We’re currently oh-so in love with tresses that are shaped, styled, and seriously snazzy.

In fact, we’re going to go ahead and say it: there are few feelings better in this world than AMAZING hair.

Yes, that’s because whether your locks are cropped short, or flowing long, when it’s freshly washed, blow-dried, and trimmed just exactly how you like it, you feel you can take on pretty much anything.

What a pity then most folk have also had their fair share of salon disasters. You’re left alone, weeping into a battered, year-old magazine as your hair is assassinated: the colour is wrong; the layers far too choppy; the finish less than fabulous.

It’s no wonder then that women hold dear their favoured hair-dressers, refusing to share their secret with friends and family for fear they’ll never again get an appointment.

Well, at least SHEmazing! is happy to part with one particularly coveted tip for the top: namely Zero One in Greystones Co Wicklow.

It hasn’t been open long – but it’s already garnering a reputation for being one of the best in the business.

For one thing, the Zero One Facebook page is overrun with incredible hair transformations – that and it has a team of talented stylists who are passionate about everything from a wash and blow-dry to a full set of hair extensions.

It does clip-ins too for those not wanting to take the plunge, and the colourists in situ (the salon uses the celebrated Aveda range) are nothing short of top-notch.

Irish model Madeline is certainly on our hot list for red carpet style. 

When she toured the world with her actor beau, Jack Reynor, for the Transformers movie premieres, she blew us away with her unique style – all of which came from Irish designers. 

But this week, she really turned the style stakes up a notch when she donned the Scottish red carpet for the premiere of Macbeth

Wearing a couture black gown, with a statement high neck line and feathered bottom, Madeline wowed onlookers with her dress. 

But it's not the first time you've seen the 25-year-old in this designer. 

In June of this year, the Limerick beauty was on-hand to model a stunning bridal gown by Jennifer Young as part of the National Tailoring Academy's graduate showcase. 

And as Madeline wrote on her Instagram page, after graduation, Jennifer asked Madeline to be her model for her first collection – and this black dress is one of her creations. 

"Seriously blown away by Jennifer Young's tailoring! I was Jennifer's model for her final show piece with the @national_tailoring_academy. (If you remember that amazing wedding dress with her statement high neckline)."

"After graduating she asked me to be her model for her first collection. Jennifer hails from Scotland and for the Scottish premiere of Macbeth, I was so happy to wear her first masterpiece."

And we're so happy you did too Madeline, because you look ah-mazing!

While London usually nabs all the best and biggest movie events – a host of stars went north to Edinburgh yesterday for the glitzy, red-carpet premiere of Macbeth.

Unsurprisingly, handsome Irish lads Michael Fassbender and Jack Reynor were suited and booted, looking particularly dapper for the occasion.

However, (and while yes, we're certainly impressed with the film's leading males), it has to be noted that Jack's model fiancee very possibly stole the show. 

Donning a dramatic fur and leather collared gown, Madeline Mulqueen, 25, ensured that all eyes were on her as she posed up for the waiting photographers.

Earlier in the day the Limerick-native had taken to Instagram to share a snap of her stunning red-carpet make-up.

Then last night she shared a second adorable picture of her and Jack, 23, gazing at one-another along with the caption: "Couldn't be more proud of this man."

 

Premiere time!

Meanwhile, speaking to the waiting media, Kerryman Mr Fassbender revealed that he was delighted to be in Scotland: "We were lucky enough to film a bit up here and I was here in 2006 doing a play at the Fringe Festival so I love being back.

"I love the city – its architecture and the really great people," he added.

Earlier in the day, Michael, Jack and the rest of the Macbeth cast – which includes Marion Cotillard as Lady Macbeth, and The Great Gatsby’s Elizabeth Debicki as Lady Macduff – had stepped out for a photo call at Edinburgh Castle.

Last week, Mr Reynor, who plays Malcolm in the movie, revealed: "I don't have a huge role in this film, but it was great to just be on that set and observe these incredible actors," he said, in particular referring to 38-year-old Mr Fassbender.

"Michael has got great charisma and he's a brilliant actor. We had some great career conversations, and he's certainly full of great advice.

"I'm looking forward to grabbing a pint with him soon."

It’s been a little while since we’ve seen the Limerick model on the runway, but that hasn’t stopped Madeline Mulqueen getting back to her roots this week.

The 24-year-old was on-hand to don a stunning bridal gown as part of the National Tailoring Academy's spectacular graduate showcase.

While it seems a low-key lifestyle is Madeline’s preferred choice, the gig certainly marks a change from the events we’ve grown used to seeing her and her Hollywood actor fiancé attend.

Certainly, the model and her 23-year-old beau Jack Raynor have been particularly prolific on the red-carpet recently.

The pair are, for example, only just back from the Cannes Film Festival. While there, Madeline also made us green with envy posting a photo of the their stunning view of the French Riviera on Twitter.

Ms Mulqueen has been on home-soil since the beginning of the month, being spotted at a handful of exclusive events in the capital. She also returned to Limerick earlier this week for some down-time.

The wedding dress she wore today was designed by the talented Jennifer Young, who was the recipient of the Excellence In Craftsmanship accolade for her striking Serenade bridal collection.

Irish actor Jack Reynor is reportedly being sued after allegedly running over two women in Hollywood two years ago.

The women involved in the case, reported by TMZ, say they were walking on a crosswalk when the Transformers actor ran them over: “throwing them into the air and onto the hood of his vehicle.”

The women were left with injuries including head trauma and knee and back injuries and are allegedly suing Jack for $25K.

Eek, this doesn’t sound very good for the actor – TMZ say they have contacted a rep for his side of the story but have heard nothing back yet.

We thought Colin Farrell did fairly well for himself, but not when compared to 22-year-old Jack Reynor, who is officially Ireland’s first billion dollar star.

He is the most successful box office star for a single movie, since Transformers: Age of Extinction, became the first film this year to pass $1bn in global receipts.

Liam Neeson is a close runner up after starring in Star Wars: Episode 1 – The Phantom Menace raked in $983m (€722m) worldwide in 1999.

Imagine having earned this title at 22-years-old? We are green with envy – what are we doing with our lives?!

Transformers: Age of Extinction is very nearly here, opening in Irish cinemas tomorrow, July 5th. Last night saw one of the movie’s pivotal characters and homegrown star’s Jack Reynor set foot on the red carpet at the Irish premiere for Transformers 4.

Niamh Geaney got chatting to the breakthrough talent, as well as Glenn Keogh, another Irish actor who happens to kickstart this monster of a movie. The lovely Laura Whitmore was there to host the event and we caught her views on the film too.

Simon Delaney and Jack Reynor are apparently too busy to make the Irish premiere of their new film Delivery Man.

The duo, who both star alongside Vince Vaughn in the flick, are fast becoming Hollywood stars and have been snapped up for new roles already.

Unfortunately, no star-studded event will take place in Ireland ahead of Friday’s release.

A source confirmed to the Herald: “We won’t have any stars of the film over to Ireland for an official premiere. We tried to set up a screening that Jack and Simon could attend, but they are just too busy with work commitments at the moment.”

We shouldn’t feel too sad though, as this is just a sign of the Irish actors’ great talent.

One of them will be returning to Irish shores very soon, with Reynor filming his role of a taxi driver in Tallaght for the new flick Glassland.
