McGowan would have joined the IRA?
Sometimes actors say something that they regret afterwards, and if Rose McGowan really did say this then I imagine she might well regret it at some point, although I do have a sneaky suspicion that this might have been taken out of context to gain headlines, which it has. She was talking about her role in Fifty Dead Men Walking adapted from the memoirs of Martin McGartland who was a British undercover agent within the IRA for years.

And it's also why actress Rose McGowan has just told the world's media that she would definitely join the IRA if she had the chance - partly due to the political beliefs of the IRA and partly due to the way that camouflage military wear compliments her skintone. Now, you might be thinking that it's extraordinarily boneheaded for an actress like Rose McGo

I guess when you make a movie about the Irish Republican Army and Northern Ireland's infamous "Troubles," you're bound to court some controversy.
