CAREER DETAILS:

1998: stars in his first advertisement for the bbc and does some catalogue modeling.

1999: books his first big role for a BBC film, which immediately skyrocket’s the 5-year-olds career. for the next few years, he is in every holiday film and makes cameos in nearly every project produced in the uk.

2002: moves to new york city with his mother, father and siblings and has a few small roles in sitcoms, books a few small roles.

2008: moves back home to ireland as work has dried up. he is now 14 and no longer the cutesy kid, in the midst of awkward puberty –– leaving him without roles.

2012: finishes his A-levels and goes to school to study drama in london. he stars in a few plays, eventually even doing a play with the royal shakespeare company. continues to work in theatre and british productions, but longs to make it back to the us and be successful there.

2016: stops stage acting temporarily to focus on his health, but stars in a few indie movies.

2020: gets cast in the second season of a major limited tv series for amazon, where he has a small but recurring role that ends up becoming a surprise fan favourite.

2022: moves back to the us, l.a. this time, and tries to use his momentum from home to propel his career forward here. it’s going... okay. savings are running out.

WANTED CONNECTIONS:

siblings: ronan has two siblings, one older and one younger, with whom he feels he has always had a pretty good relationship - but that isn’t felt by all three. there is definitely some tension. the kelly’s always focused on ronan’s career and needs more, though they also heavily relied on it for income.

old nyc friends: ronan did some theatre work and small tv work back in new york city around 2002-2008, and made some great friends there, though they have grown apart over the years.

colleagues: ronan is quite new in l.a., which means that the few people he knows are from work - any connections welcome!

housemates: ronan does not make enough money to live alone in l.a., and will therefore live with at least 2 other housemates, most likely other actors or singers trying to break into the industry in the us.

BIOGRAPHY:

from an early age, ronan’s mum (jenny) worked on getting her son into the modeling industry. the only thing he had inherited from her were her bright green eyes, but they stood out so much that it did not take very long for him to be scouted - and his first commercial photoshoots were scheduled at age 4.

once his name started growing in the modeling industry, his agent suggested that they try to get him into the acting world as well. he enjoyed playing make believe and worked well with others. she got him his first few auditions and he booked his first major role soon after. from then, you couldn’t look one way or another without seeing his face on the screen or in a magazine. he became the family business and soon after, his parents both stopped working to support him.

when he was eight, the family moved to nyc for him to star into some sitcoms and do a few small roles. he continues to audition, but with his strong irish accent, he is not booking nearly as many roles as he was back home. he starts working with an accent coach on a regular basis to both try and master a generic american accent and a more generic british accent. he also goes back to modeling and turns to being homeschooled to fit around his schedule, despite his siblings both going to public schools.

tw: eating disorder !! he soon begins working out every day and his diet is closely monitored, which instills an eating disorder in him. he often hears his family arguing about money, and he is no longer booking modeling work nor acting work. they move back to ireland and his eating disorder still goes unchecked.

he goes back to school with his siblings and his parents invest his money, hoping to double it, though the investments are not very successful. he continues to try and audition and get modeling roles, but he is a rather awkward-looking teen, very pimple-y, and his voice drop takes a lot longer to stabilise than normal. his obsession with working out and eating healthy changes, and he begins to skip meals closer to his final exams.

he makes his way through drama school and surely but slowly begins to get cast again. his obsession with his health still lingers in the background, and continues to fester until he finally accepts that what he does is not healthy and takes a break from acting in 2016 to focus on his mental health and his relationship with food. he also asks for a break in contact with his parents to focus on his mental health, which they hate and do not respect.

the first audition he takes when returning to the acting world lands him a role in the second season of a high-fantasy show for amazon. though his role was only small, he becomes a surprise fan-favourite, and his fame skyrockets. his parents try to get back into his good books but he refuses to reconnect for the time being. he decides to move back to the us, to l.a. this time, and continue his search for fame once again.

dealer's choice: how far would you go to land the guy or girl of your dreams + if you could erase one past sexual experience, what would it be + what is the sluttiest thing you ever did to get someone's attention + which fellow celebrity would you love to have sex with 

how  far  would  you  go  to  land  the  guy  or  girl  of  your  dreams  ? apparently  ,  move  across  an  ocean  and  fuck  up  an  audition.  though  i  guess  i  didn't  know  that's  what  would  make  me  meet  waves  ...  i'd  do  it  again  though  ,  cheesy  as  it  is. @dispersisfabulis

if  you  could  erase  one  past  sexual  experience  ,  what  would  it  be ? oh  that's  easy.  any  sexual  experience  when  i  still  had  a  gag  reflex.

what  is  the  sluttiest  thing  you  ever  did  to  get  someone's  attention  ? i've  done  the  whole  ,  slow  emerge  from  the  sea  bit  while  flexing.  classic  for  a  reason  ,  right  ?

which  fellow  celebrity  would  you  love  to  have  sex  with  ? do  senators  count  as  celebrities  ? @fvkmatthew

[spctlights]

[spctlights]

if you could revisit one memory what would it be? ( ronan )

probably my first real red carpet , for love actually … it was terrifying. having so many different people yelling your name , wanting you to look at them , pose this way and that. it was overwhelming and it's a blur , looking back. i wish i could remember it , take it in fully , with the knowledge i have now and where that silly christmas film would take me.

[spctlights]

all muses ; if you were regulated to only being allowed to purchase things in one specific color for the rest of your life what color would it be? 

probably green ? i look fuckin' good in it , it's calming , it's got a variety of veg and fruits … and i could keep drinking matcha. mainly because of that.

that's a really dumb question ? i guess orange/yellow so i can drink myself to death ?

red. for the obvious reasons. it's just the best. or black if i still get to eat whatever else.

yellow or blue , stunners of colours. favourites. yeah. one of those two.
