Almost but not quite. The following site says there are still two months of painting to go:

I know that "big gap," but couldn't remember if it was after Hanna or The Host so I went back and checked
(because I have no life).
Hanna to The Host was the largest gap, by far. Hanna was released in April 2011, The Host in March 2013, almost two years later. But in that lull, Saoirse was making V&D, Byzantium, HILN and TGBH. I think she was still filming Budapest or had just finished when The Host opened.
Another large gap was between The Lovely Bones and Hanna, which would also have been almost two years if not for the little-seen The Way Back in between.
But the flopping of The Host hurt. Two months after it opened she made the earlier announced Lost River. But that was it, for about a year, until TGBH came out in 2014 and the back-to-back filming of the lamentable Stockholm PA and the glorious Brooklyn took place.
This current gap looks to be another long one with no new film due out in 2016. But it's of a completely different nature. For one, she is now an adult Academy Award nominee and the publicity from that takes away some of the sting.
I'm sort of giving up on The Seagull. If it were anda0y good it would have picked up a distributor by now, especially with two Academy Award nominees in it.
But we still have Lady Bird and two major independents, Loving Vincent and On Chesil Beach, to come.
Then there was that six-month dry spell that wasn't a dry spell at all. It was The Crucible on Broadway, in which I saw her, live, twice. Second row center the first time, third row center the second. (I know, I'm gloating. Broke, but gloating. Sorry)
We're greedy. We want her to have a year like Jessica Chastain had from 2011-2012. Eleven films. (And almost four a year since then.) -

Yeah, we're greed
the problem is also, that we see the other actors all anouncing new movies( Brie,Alicia, Rooney) and Saoirse only Lady Bird and Chesil Beach. I think it has to do with her dislike of doing a movie after the other( at least thats what she said in an interview). -

ugh Im still hoping she'll announce somethingn new before the end of this year. something High Profile, please! her peers are announcing lots of new projects, and i know she's weirdly selective, plus all the competition in her age range, but it's been six months since she's announced sb68omething (which was before the Oscars). you would think she'd be cast in something big already. do you think her crucible run put a pause on the offers? like she couldn't read new scripts? i find that impossible, but i really wonder why her team has not gotten anything yet. i'm feeling good about Chesil Beach, but it might be ignored in the end.

I don't know if The Crucible tied her hands. I do think from her comments she was deeply immersed in it.
I'm feeling very good about On Chesil Beach. I think it's going to be huge for an independent with the same team making it that made Carol. Plus it has the natural publicity of its reuniting Saoirse with McEwan, a two-time Academy Award nominee working again with the major writer whose first connection led to her2000 first nomination. It's not a stretch to argue the reason we even know of Saoirse is because of McEwan and Atonement.
Mildly concerned about the inwardness of the story, but I'm figuring it will be worked out. -

"We couldnt agree more with this brief description of Saoirse Ronan by TIME: the Irish star is redefining female roles on the screen and the stage. Indeed look how she's redefining Margaret Gachet in Loving Vincent!
We're extremely happy to have her on board!"

I'm not sure what "completed" means in this case. Does it mean completed completed or just that all the paintings would be finished? If it's just the paintings, and I understand they're not all done, it would mean still much editing ahead, wouldn't it?
