The actor stars in the six-part thriller The Gone. He said, “The series is about this young couple who go missing in New Zealand. ' Liam also opened up about his time on Glenroe and The Commitments
Liam Carney has opened up about filming new series The Gone — and the role which will “always be very special to me”.
Irish Special Branch Detective Theo Richter travels to New Zealand to be the Garda liaison officer for the family — and soon finds himself working alongside young Maori Detective Sergeant Diana Huia, who is on her first big case. Richard Flood, Acushla-Tara Kupe, Michelle Fairley, Carolyn Bracken, Wayne Hapi, Vanessa Rare, Scott Willis and Manu Bennett also star in the series.
He said, “Acting was something that I always wanted to do, ever since I was a young, school-going child; a teenager, whatever. It was always something that I wanted to do. “And it was wonderful to work with the director, Alan Parker, a second time on Angela’s Ashes — that was really special, as well.“Gangs of New York, that was a huge experience. And then there were home movies, like Studs. It was written and directed by Paul Mercier, and it is one of my favourites.
The film, which was directed by Claire Dix and written by Ailbhe Keogan, follows recovering addict Leon, played by Barry Ward, who discovers that his sponsor and best pal, Iver, has gotten a terminal diagnosis and wants to choose how — and when — he dies. He continued, “The satisfaction from the live audience is wonderful. It’s one of the big pluses for theatre, the live reaction from audiences.”
Liam also played Glenroe’s Kevin Haughey from 1995 until 2000 — and noted that while he doesn’t get recognised as much as he used to, it’s still the show he gets recognised for the most.“Now, even with Fair City and even other series’ I’ve done in Ireland, Glenroe would be the one that I’d be recognised for the most.
He said, “It’s the stories themselves, I think. We’re quite renowned for our literature and our theatre, so I think that’s all it is.
