Saoirse Monica-Jackson teases Derry Girls movie

SAOIRSE Monica-Jackson, who plays Erin in Derry Girls, has teased the possibility of a Derry Girls movie.

During her appearance on the podcast Dish with Nick Grimshaw & Angela Hartnett, Saoirse revelled that she would definitely be up for it if the opportunity arose.

“I think that would be great. I think it’s so brilliant to see what everybody else went on to do after it,” she commented.

Would she ever play Erin on the big screen? 

“The cast is all so talented and it was amazing to work with them all, so it’s interesting to see what everyone’s went on to do afterwards, and I think it’s always good to give these things space creatively and then come back, and I think it also might be more interesting d’you know, to revisit these characters at a later date," Saoirse said.

She added: “But like honest to – that’s not down to us you know, that would be down to Lisa, but I would read the ingredients of a Pot Noodle if she asked me to so Lisa, if you’re listening?”
