Recently, Tim Robbins, Saoirse Ronan, and Bill Murray came together in New York to talk about their new film City of Ember directed by Gil Kenan, which will be in theaters October 10th. Tim, Saoirse, and Bill all joked around with one another and seemed to have a lot of respect for one another. Everyone seemed to want Tim to answer the political-types questions to which he answered,”I’m not takin’ that one. I always took that one.” The new commer (if you can still call her that) Saoirse Ronan, seemed to hold her own among the two film legends and even challenge them at times. At one point she tells Tim he can’t be in the sequel and when Bill says, I’m “boring you to tears” she says “yeah.” Bill Murray was extremely charming and sharp witted as he spoke about City of Ember as well as settling some rumors on the new Ghostbusters.
Without further ado, the three members of the City of Ember cast, Tim Robbins, Saoirse Ronan, and Bill Murray…
