And thanks to Saoirse Ronan Web we have the article on The Dubliner:

For two months before shooting began on this month’s action thriller Hanna, 17-year-old Saoirse Ronan endured a daily four-hour regimen of martial arts and weight lifting to play a girl trained by her father—a former Central Intelligence Agency operative (Eric Bana)—to assassinate a top CIA official (Cate Blanchett). It’s not the first time Ronan has been called upon to portray a kid with very adult challenges. In Atonement, for which she earned an Academy Award nomination, she played 13-year-old Briony Tallis, whose rape allegation dooms the love affair between Keira Knightley and James McAvoy. In Peter Jackson’s The Lovely Bones, she was 14-year-old Susie Salmon, who narrates her own murder investigation from beyond the grave. Yet to Ronan’s surprise, she found some childlike elements in the character of Hanna. “At first I thought, This is going to be a badass kid,” says the Irish actress. “But she turned into something else, which was actually quite innocent.” Although Hanna is very much an action movie (set to a thumping Chemical Brothers score), it’s also a coming-of-age story, to which Ronan can relate. “I’m still figuring out who I am,” she admits.

PopSugar made an interview with Saoirse and Hanna director, Joe Wright:

Tribute‘s Bonnie Laufer had a chance to chat with Saoirse via satellite from her native Ireland about this action-packed film, the experience of shooting in freezing cold Finland, and how she celebrated her recent 17th birthday.

With Hanna still going strong at the box office, the film’s star, Saoirse Ronan, is proving she is quite the talent. The 17-year-old Irish actress already has an Oscar nomination under her belt and rest assured, it probably won’t be her last. In Hanna she plays a trained assassin raised in the snowy forests of Finland. Her father, played by Eric Bana, has only one mission in mind for his daughter—to complete her assassination mission.
