Saoirse attended The Lovely Bones Dublin Premiere last night. I only found three images so far, hope more will surface. EDIT: More images added. We now have 8 HQs and 35 MQs in the gallery!

BAFTA-nominated actress Saoirse Ronan finally arrived in Dublin last night for the premiere of Peter Jackson’s film ‘The Lovely Bones’ and said it was the one she was most looking forward to.

After spending the last few weeks at first nights of the film in Sydney, Wellington, Los Angeles and London, the 15-year-old star found herself outside Dublin’s Savoy theatre having her name shouted by photographers.

“I’ve been all over the world with this film but the Irish premiere was the one I was most looking forward too. It’s really important because this is my home, where my family and friends live. To be here and share a film which I care about so much is really wonderful,” Ronan told the Irish Independent.

Wearing a vintage black moschino dress despite the winter chill, the actress, already nominated for an Oscar for the 2007 film ‘Atonement’, said she considered as “hype” speculation that she could be up for another Oscar when the list of nominees are announced next month.

“It may happen, it may not, at the moment it’s only hype. I really don’t know what way it’s going to go,” she said.

While on her recent Bafta nomination she said: “I was delighted to be nominated, and very happy for Stanley (her co-star in the film Stanley Tucci). I thought he might well get the nod, but it was a genuine lovely surprise to hear I had got one too.”

Organisers of last night’s premiere had hoped that co-stars Stanley Tucci and Susan Sarandon, along with Rachel Weisz, who plays her mother in the film, would attend the Irish night but it wasn’t possible.
