Chances are you know her face, but the name somehow seems to slip by. That's what kept happening to me everytime I saw the sexy Kelly Condon light up the screen. This hot, spicy lucky charm from Tipperary, Ireland first caught my eye in the Jet Li actioner, Danny the Dog(known as Unleashed here in the States). She was the emotional core of that violent flick, and stole every scene she was in, even when matched up against heavyweights like Morgan Freeman and Bob Hoskins. Then she disappeared off my radar for awhile until she popped up as the beautiful but easily manipulated Octavia in HBO's series, Rome.
Rumors of a possible Rome big screen effort still persist, but her next major role will be in The Last Station, directed by Michael Hoffman. The anticipated film about Leo Tolstoy also stars James McAvoy, Christopher Plummer, Helen Mirren, and Paul Giamatti, so she's in some pretty damn good company. The Last Station is due out in January, 2010, so keep an eye out.
