Taking Risks
Pierce had the family aspect that he missed so much during his childhood, but this didn’t stop him dreaming of making it in Hollywood. Harris supported his aspirations, thus the pair sat down and worked out how he could come to realize this dream. Leaving their life in favor of the American dream was risky, but they were willing to take these risks. The Brosnans applied for a home improvement but kept the funds to buy plane tickets to L.A. It was devious, but it worked out in the end.
The Hollywood Dream Comes True
The Brosnan family finally made it to the States and it all worked out very nicely for him. He finally acquired a lead role in a series and it even seems like the role was tailor made for Brosnan! He just played it so well. He starred as the lead in The Manions of Ireland, a series based on the Irish famine. Brosnan grabbed the role with both hands and thought, “by God, I’ve done it. It’s my time and I’m gonna take it by the throat and fly with it.” Even he didn’t know how much further he could go.
