Irish actor Domhnall Gleeson joins Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy in The Revenant

"Gleeson, He's so hot right now"...

Paul Moore

“Gleeson; He’s so hot right now”…

Much like a person that is in the middle of a hot streak on a craps table in Las Vegas, Domhnall Gleeson must feel like the good times will never end.

Not only has he landed a part in a small film called Star Wars: Episode VII – The Rise of Jedi JOE (were still trying to get JJ Abrams to add us into the title) but the talented actor will now be joining Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy and Will Poulter in Alejandro González Iñárritu’s upcoming western, The Revenant.

This news caps an amazing couple of months for the talented actor who has really seen his star rise after impressive turns in About Time, Frank and Calvary.

The Revenant is about a frontiersman who wants to get revenge on a couple of men who left him for dead after being mauled by a bear.

JOE instantly thinks of this hilarious ad after hearing that plot synopsis. We’e fairly sure that this bear isn’t real, though.
