Barry Keoghan nominated for British Independent Film Award

He's only getting bigger and bigger.

The nominees for the British Independent Film Awards have been released, and unsurprisingly, Barry Keoghan has made the list. The Dublin man, who was our first guest in our brand new interview series, Ireland Unfiltered, has been nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his role in American Animals. His co-star Evan Peters was nominated for the same award. Film4 Productions were responsible for the movie, which is why it was eligible for the awards. American Animals has received nominees all over the shop, including Best British Independent Film, Best Director and Best Screenplay. This is quite the achievement for Keoghan, and we'll be rooting for him all the way.
