Academy Award Nominee Kerry Condon Combines Her Love of Cinema and Water in the Supernatural Thriller Film "Night Swim"

One of the reasons Kerry Condon wanted to dive into Night Swim was the water.

“I was always interested in doing swimming on-camera and combining those two great interests for me,” Condon, an accomplished swimmer who swam competitively as a child, says. “I am a good swimmer and I wanted to show my physicality. I love water in movies and I think filming in water is beautiful, so I wanted to be a part of that and learn more about it.”

Another major reason was the genre. “I thought this was a great opportunity for me that I’d never done a horror movie before, and I’ve always wanted a career that would allow me to be a character actress in every kind of genre,” shares Condon, who was nominated for a Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for her role in the comedy The Banshees of Inisherin. Condon was also a recurring character in the critically acclaimed drama Better Call Saul (a Breaking Bad spinoff).

In Night Swim, based on McGuire’s acclaimed 2014 short film of the same name, Ray Waller (Wyatt Russell) is a former major league baseball player forced into early retirement by a degenerative illness. Secretly hoping, against the odds, to return to pro ball, Ray persuades his wife, Eve (Condon), that their new home’s shimmering backyard swimming pool will be fun for the kids (Amélie Hoeferle and Gavin Warren) and provide physical therapy for him. But a dark secret in the home’s past will unleash a malevolent force that will drag the family under, into the depths of inescapable terror.

Watch the trailer: https://youtu.be/hgnUYV330cA?si=I447yv_uA3Bt25du

“On the day I met Kerry, she had been nominated for a Golden Globe for Banshees of Inisherin and swam a mile in the ocean that morning – not a bad day,” director Bryce McGuire says. “She had to do some really demanding underwater work, especially late in the movie, that most people simply would not have been able to do. She’s an extremely tough and physical actor. Something special happens with Kerry every time the camera rolls. She really pushed me and the material, and she’s fantastic in the movie.”

Condon enjoyed working with McGuire as well. “Bryce knew a lot about the genre and that was important to me because I hadn’t done something like this before,” she says. “He had a lot of references and wanted it to be character-based, which appealed to me. A lot was riding on Bryce, and he gave it everything. He was also always open to collaboration, which was great. I have worked with directors in the past that didn’t want to listen to other suggestions, but I believe that the best idea should win, doesn’t matter who gave it and Bryce felt the same.”

Dare to take a dive when Night Swim, distributed by Universal Pictures International, opens in cinemas February 21.

Say Hello To GOLI Nutrition's Newest Ambassador, Francine Diaz

If anyone knows how to conquer the demanding world of showbiz while staying healthy and looking flawless, it’s Francine Diaz!

Stepping into her role as the latest face of Goli Nutrition, the 20-year-old actress has perfected the art of self-care to stay looking and feeling her best. Francine gets real about personal wellness and her top tips for staying healthy this year.

On the importance of a routine

Francine spills her simple secret to maintaining balance in the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life: sticking to a schedule. She starts her day at 4AM, getting in an early morning workout, meditating, and doing a bit of journaling. “Then I get ready for school. And then I get home before 5 PM. I'm strict with my time and routine,” she shared.

Whether it’s another day of filming on or an important test at school, Francine acknowledges that the key to maintaining her energy and focus is a good night’s sleep. When asked about her nighttime routine, she named Goli Sleep as an essential part of getting some shut-eye after a hectic day. “Parating late natatapos, nahihirapan ako makatulog kahit pagod na pagod ako kaya sobrang laking tuling ng Goli Sleep. Kahit isa lang, sobrang bilis effect ng sa akin at talagang mahimbing tulog ko.”

On keeping up with hobbies and self-care

Outside her busy schedule, Francine finds solace in hobbies that nourish her soul. She lists reading books and watching movies as her favorite ways to do so. “Because sometimes I can't really go to school or I can't do my online classes. So when I read books, my brain refreshes. And that's where I get knowledge,” she explained.

She also states that she is a big advocate for self-care. Sharing her go-to way to destress after a long day, “I eat a lot and I go to sleep. Pizza is my comfort food!”

On starting one’s health journey

For those looking to adopt healthier habits into their routine, Francine offers practical advice:

“Start with your sleeping schedule, and then the next step would be your food, your diet.”

She emphasizes that taking the first step doesn’t have to be overwhelming; instead, it can begin with a focus on the basics. She also encourages a holistic and consistent approach to wellness, recognizing that habits in our routines should support each other. “Well, for me, it's not enough to just eat your food. It's important to have vitamins because your immune system gets better, it gets better and you can function better.”

Watsons Health Expo 2024

As a believer in vitamin regimens, Goli Nutrition knew Francine was the perfect brand ambassador to convey the importance of holistic wellness, reinforcing the idea that beauty radiates from within. Taking center stage at the Watsons Health Expo, she shared more of her health and wellness philosophies with fans and fellow Goli Getters.

Throughout the event, attendees were treated to Goli discounts, vouchers, and freebies. The fun didn’t end there, as audience members were also given the chance to win free Goli products through a short game segment. Francine made a stunning appearance to engage in a Q&A session, where she spoke candidly on how Goli has become an integral part of her routine. She mentions using the vitamins to take care of her overall wellness in preparation for her busy schedule and upcoming projects and called for others to join her in prioritizing their health journey with the help of Goli.

Put your well-being in the spotlight
