An incredible achievement for a really promising actor.

Us Irish really can act... If you had any doubt about this fact, we'll point you to the evidence. 1) It has just been announced that Dubliner Aidan Gillen is being awarded an Oscar Wilde Award for his performances in movies and television, and 2) Barry Keoghan has just been listed as one of the Hollywood Reporter's seven rising stars poised for a breakout in 2019. The Dub has been absolutely killing it for the past couple of years, and he doesn't look like he's going to slow down anytime soon. In 2019, Keoghan willll star in Y as Yorick Brown, the last surviving human with a Y chromosome after a mysterious plague wipes out the male chromosome. We don't know much about a release date just yet, but we do know we'll be watching anyway. If you want to know anymore about the man himself, you may look no further than JOE's own interview with him as part of our #Unfiltered series. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwgjLxyhqF8
