Kerry Condon Movies
Born in 1983, Irish actress
Kerry Condon got her start at the age of 16, first with a two-episode arc on the BBC's
Ballykissangel and then with a small role in the Oscar-nominated adaptation of
Frank McCourt's Angela's Ashes. In the early part of the 2000s, she could be seen in supporting roles in the comedy
Rat, the biopic
Ned Kelly, and the indie ensemble drama
Intermission. In 2005,
Condon starred alongside
Jet Li and
Morgan Freeman in the action-drama
Unleashed. That same year, she was cast in her most prominent and acclaimed role yet, that of Octavia of the Julii on the ambitious BBC/HBO co-production
Rome. The great-niece of Julius Caesar and the older sister of Caesar's successor, Octavian, the character offered plenty of opportunities for
Condon to wow audiences and critics with her performance. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi
