Pierce Brosnan, 72, is addressing critical backlash regarding his portrayal of an Irish accent in the Paramount+ series "MobLand." He clarified that while his own accent is softer, he aimed for a distinct Kerry accent, working closely with a dialect coach to achieve that. Despite his efforts, audiences and critics have voiced strong disapproval, with many commenting on social media about the unrealistic nature of his accent, leading to a wave of criticism since the series launched in March 2021.
Brosnan stated in an interview, 'I told him that I needed a Kerry accent… so, I just gave it full tilt,' explaining his choice for the role.
Critics highlighted Brosnan's accent, with Ed Power calling it 'a horror for the ages,' questioning how an Irishman could deliver such an accent.
