Actor Ethan Hawke has said he had a “wonderful” experience filming his latest movie, Blue Moon, in Ireland and would love to work there again.

His newest collaboration with director Richard Linklater was shot primarily in Dublin , with production also taking place at Ardmore Studios in Wicklow.

Set in March 1943, Blue Moon follows Broadway lyricist Lorenz Hart on the opening night of Oklahoma!, a musical by his former colleague Richard Rodgers.

The film, written by Robert Kaplow, stars Hawke as Hart, Andrew Scott as Rodgers and Margaret Qualley as Elizabeth Weiland, a Yale student with whom Hart is infatuated.
