Ruth Negga says she jumped at the chance of playing a black woman pretending to be white in her new movie, Passing.
The film is one of the most anticipated at the Sundance Film Festival where it will get its world premiere on Saturday night.
The Limerick-raised actress plays Clare Kendry, a black woman who meets up with childhood friend Irene Redfield, played by Westworld’s Tessa Thompson, years later in New York’s Harlem.
Redfield is stunned to discover that her pal has spent years passing herself off as a white woman and has even married a white racist. Their friendship becomes an obsession which could endanger their futures.
