Ronan Keating's acting on the quiet

RONAN Keating says his acting debut in Goddess, a kitchen sink musical currently shooting on the outskirts of Sydney, is the culmination of a decade's worth of hard work.

"I've been doing castings for years," said the Irish singer on set in Bringelly this week, revealing he had screen tested for Moulin Rouge, King Arthur and The Hobbit.

"My plan was not to do a movie that had music in it. [Goddess] just came my way and I think it's the perfect transition for me. It's almost like a stepping stone -- a great way to cross over.

"And I love to sing. The funny thing is, I only have one and a half songs in this film."

Most of the musical responsibilities on Goddess are shouldered by Keating's leading lady Laura Michelle Kelly, who has taken a four-month sabbatical from the Broadway production of Mary Poppins to play a recent British immigrant stuck in an isolated farmhouse in Tasmania with two unruly toddlers while her husband (Keating) is off saving the world's whales.

To overcome her isolation, the reluctant housewife performs funny sink songs to a web cam installed in her kitchen -- becoming an overnight cyber sensation in the process.

Aussie Musical Calls Action
by Kasey Simpson | April 13, 2011

Featuring a clutch of musical talent, the feature film ‘Goddess’ has just commenced shooting in Sydney.

Shooting has just commenced on the Australian musical Goddess at Sydney's Fox Studios. The project's to be directed by Mark Lamprell (co-writer of Babe: Pig in the City and director of My Mother Frank) with actress turned writer, director Judy Morris (co-director of Happy Feet and writer of Fred Schepisi's upcoming Eye of the Storm) here serving as Musical Director. The film's based on a screenplay penned by Lamprell and Joanna Weinberg.


Very much in the spirit of feel-good musicals, Lamprell hopes Goddess will find a global audience. "Goddess is a wonderful fairy tale which I hope will resonate with audiences around the world," the director enthuses.


The story of Goddess follows a young mum, Elspeth Dickens, who shares mischievous twin boys with husband James Dickens, an international whale conservationist. When the mother of two installs a webcam in her kitchen, her household songs are fed live to the world and she becomes a cyber sensation. However, when the internet goddess has to choose between fame and family, she almost loses it all..

Taking on the lead role of Elspeth is English actress Laura Michelle Kelly, who is best known for her performance as Mary Poppins on Broadway. Playing her husband James is international singer/songwriter Ronan Keating who will put his X-factor duties on hold for a while.

Also cast is Magda Szubanski, playing the head of an advertising company in the film.

Producer Richard Keddie (Hawke) has high hopes that the star cast will help create a memorable musical that emulates the classics. "With the beautiful Laura Michelle Kelly, and the incredible Ronan Keating and Magda Szubanski, we hope to turn our brilliant script into as fine a musical as this country has ever seen.

"Hopefully it will fare better than the recent Aussie "feel good" musical A Heartbeat Away...

Goddess is scheduled to be released nationally in cinemas in 2012.

Ronan Keating performing on three fronts

Ross Purdie, National Entertainment Writer, AAP April 12, 2011


Having patched up his family difficulties, Ronan Keating is looking ahead and knuckling down.

The Irish singer returned to Sydney this week with a new album to promote, a first film role to shoot and a second judging stint on The X-Factor to negotiate.

Keating confirmed his next 12 months are already mapped into a hectic working schedule that combines his passions for music, film and TV.

"It's funny how it all happens at once sometimes and then you might have a year where nothing's going on," Keating told AAP in Sydney.

"You kind of make hay while the sun shines and keep going."

Keating's first project of 2011 has been recording an album with legendary singer songwriter Burt Bacharach in New York, called When Ronan Met Burt.

A covers album of Bacharach's songs, including Arthur's Theme and I'll Never Fall In Love Again, Keating was accompanied by a 40-piece orchestra and session musicians from Michael Jackson's former stable.

The collaboration was a dream come true for Keating who has been a fan of Bacharach's music since he was a child.

"You wouldn't believe how involved he was," Keating said of 82-year-old Bacharach, who co-produced the album.



The former Boyzone star realises a lot of hard work lies ahead, but has already lined up another role to start in September.

"Acting is totally different from music," Keating said.

"I've been performing on stage singing and dancing since I was 16, but going into a studio and looking someone in the eye and delivering lines, listening to what they have to say and bouncing back is an incredible head space to be in."

And what of that other head space - as a judge on X Factor?

Keating confirmed he's close to signing on for the second series of the Channel Seven talent show.

With three careers stretching in tandem, a few recent words offered by Sir Ian McKellen could be applied to either.

"Ian gave me some kind advice about acting, which was walk into the room, look them in the eye and tell them the truth.

"When you think about it is exactly what you do."

When Ronan Met Burt by Ronan Keating is out now.
