Dublin actress Eve Hewson, daughter of U2 frontman Bono, is experiencing a meteoric rise in her career after her breakout role in the hit Apple TV+ series “Bad Sisters.” The 33-year-old actress is now making waves in Hollywood, landing major roles in high-profile projects alongside A-list stars.
Hewson’s latest film, “The Perfect Couple” on Netflix, sees her starring alongside Meghann Fahy, who, according to director Susanne Bier, is also set for superstardom. Bier praises both actresses for their “profound star quality” and “impressive insight” into themselves, a quality she believes is essential for truly great actors.
Hewson’s success extends beyond “The Perfect Couple.” She’s lined up for a second season of “Bad Sisters,” a role in Noah Baumbach’s next film alongside Adam Sandler, George Clooney, and Riley Keough, and a part in Steven Spielberg’s upcoming production. She also has a leading role in a racing series for Hulu opposite Murray Bartlett.
While enjoying the fruits of her hard work, Hewson admits that the sudden fame is a new experience. “It’s actually really fun to experience,” she told the Associated Press, recounting an anecdote where she was recognized by a fan while grocery shopping in Cape Cod.
Despite her father’s fame, Hewson emphasizes that her success is a result of years of dedicated work. She notes that many actors work for years before achieving recognition, a fact often glossed over in the industry’s focus on overnight successes.
Hewson’s co-star Fahy echoes this sentiment, saying, “You took 15 years to become an overnight success.” With her rising profile and a packed schedule, Eve Hewson is proving that talent, dedication, and a touch of “Bad Sisters” magic can truly make a star.
