London: Former Bond actor Roger Moore is making an acting comeback with romantic comedy `Connemara Days`. The movie is a fictional story about the making of 1952 classic `The Quiet Man`. The film will be made in the Irish village of Cong, Co Mayo, where the Hollywood original, starring John Wayne and Maureen O`Hara and directed by John Ford, was filmed. The movie also stars Aidan Quinn, Geraldine Chaplin and Stacy Keach, the Daily Express reported.
"`The Quiet Man` is one of my all-time favourite films. The opportunity to revisit the time when Hollywood arrived in Ireland to shoot it was simply too delicious to miss," Moore said. The 82-year-old was last seen in 2002 film `The Boat Trip`. PTI
