The former model and presenter shared a behind-the-scenes glimpse from the set of the movie on Instagram, where she stars alongside Hollywood actress Maisie Williams.
Yvonne revealed that she plays Emer, who she joked is “basically an angry version” of herself and is cast as Maisie’s mother in the film.
“I had the best day ever! In a movie… on a horse… doing a stunt,” she wrote, before thanking Louise Kennedy for helping make her “childhood dream come true”.
The film boasts an impressive cast including Bill Nighy, Clare Dunne, Michael Socha, Roman Griffin Davis and Dexter Sol Ansell.
