It’s like clockwork at this stage 😅
Barry Keoghan is the man of the moment, fresh off the back of a Golden Globe nomination for his role as Oliver in Saltburn.
So naturally it was only a matter of time before a British publication put out a piece claiming Barry as one their own.
The Summerhill actor appeared on the cover of British GQ, as the publication shared that he’s “one of our most exciting exports”.
He’s one of our most exciting actors — a combustible shape-shifter onscreen, a moon-howling dynamo off it. And he spent the last couple years achieving his Hollywood aspirations. Now, Barry Keoghan is deciding what to manifest next.
