Pierce Brosnan, 72, revisits north London locations tied to his early career and contemporary shoots. He stands beside a fishmarket, recounting a violent MobLand scene and greeting a worker who had not recognized the production. Brosnan was raised in Navan, County Meath and now divides time between homes in Hawaii and Malibu. He is in London for the release of The Thursday Murder Club, a film adaptation starring him alongside Helen Mirren, Ben Kingsley and Celia Imrie. The film centers on retirement-home sleuths whose hobby of solving cold cases escalates when new murders begin. Brosnan returns to the Drama Centre stage where he auditioned decades earlier.
You know the scene in MobLand where I've got my foot on that guy's throat and Tom Hardy is shooting the shit out of everyone? He is talking in his rich, buttery burr about the recent series in which he and Helen Mirren play the heads of an Irish crime family. We shot that right here! He waves at the woman, who silences her hose temporarily.
Brosnan, 72, was raised in Navan, County Meath but is now generally to be found at one of his homes in Hawaii or Malibu, and is in London for the release of The Thursday Murder Club, the film adaptation of Richard Osman's cosy crime bestseller. Brosnan teams up with Mirren, Ben Kingsley and Celia Imrie as retirement-home sleuths whose weekly divertissement solving historical cold cases turns serious when fresh corpses start popping up.
