Saorise Ronan has been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in Lady Bird and we could not be prouder! 

The 23-year-old Irish Actress recently won a Golden Globe for her portrayal of Christine "Lady Bird" McPherson, a high school senior coming of age in Sacramento, California, in 2002 and navigating her close and turbulent relationship with her mother.  

The film, written and directed by Greta Gerwig, was also nominated for Best Picture, and Gerwig was also nominated for Best Director and Best Original Screenplay.

Ronan, who was born in the Bronx, New York, and raised in Ireland, was recently nominated for an Oscar for Best Actress for her starring role in Brooklyn, the film adaptation of Colum Toibin's novel chronicling the journey of a young Irish immigrant to America in the 1950s. 

She was first nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in 2008 for Atonement. 

Also up for an Oscar is Irish-British playwright, filmmaker and director  Martin McDonagh, whose film Three Billboards Outside of Ebbings, Missouri is popping up in seven nomination categories, including Best Picture, Original Screenplay, two for Actor in a Supporting Role with Sam Rockwell and Woody Harrelson, and Best Actress in a Leading Role for Frances McDormand.

Daniel Day-Lewis picked up a Best Actor nomination for "Phantom Thread" with fans hoping that the British-Irish citizen could enter into his retirement years with his fourth Academy Award for his swansong movie. 

Rounding up the amazing number of 2018 Academy Award Irish nominations was Consolata Boyle, nominated Costume Design on "Victoria and Abdul," and Kilkenny-based animation studio Cartoon Saloon, who are nominated for their animation feature "The Breadwinner" directed by Nora Twomey.
