[00:15] Why? Why what? Okay, not deleted. One of the scenes was deleted. but it still exists because, you know,
[00:31] which I thought was quite a nice moment. so I'm carefully answering this because I can't say much, Oh, why was Barry Keoghan shot in "Love/Hate"?
[00:47] But I was shot in "Love/Hate" because it's a Ganglands TV series and, you know, the character, gets up to
[00:59] and he's running around with the wrong people, but yeah. - Mm, no. No. I mean, he's so young, isn't it?
[01:12] and then they end up being weird because I play them I like characters that aren't so on the nose. and complicated relationships in movies.
[01:28] And I like sort of giving the audience a character the guilty pleasure and they enjoy it. And you know, these are the ones to go to see it.
[01:40] And I try play every part with truth and honesty and, you know, a lot of them have been weird. Who is Barry Keoghan in "The Immortal Man"?
[01:55] I play Duke Shelby in "The Immortal Man." Go see it and you'll find out. - What resonated?
[02:08] so I think that does it all for me, I think. You know, I'd work with Cillian on every movie. but if that chance comes up again, I'll do it.
[02:26] and you know, he's, if not one of our like, and it's a pleasure to share the screen with him as his son. for so long and you came in for this movie,
[02:40] or did it feel comfortable right away? Yeah, it's a lot, being a fan of the show as well, you know, it's quite a thing when he's walking towards you,
[02:55] but I guess they wanted, you know, not to be thinking about the whole history of the show. Oh, okay.
[03:09] Spoiler would be, you know, I died. But it was this guy that made me die. He hit me with an elbow, my dad in this movie.
[03:23] Grateful to work with Chris Nolan and, you know, The movie was a massive like, you know, you know, planes and boats.
[03:38] because it was in a very small space And Chris looks at, he's got this monitor that's,
[03:50] But he looks, he knows what he wants because he sees it once and he is like, "Yeah, I got it."
[04:02] How did Barry Keoghan get into acting? of a movie called "Between the Canals," and I seen a notice and there was a boxing club
[04:18] called Kathleen's. And I seen the number on the notice in the window I'd done a school play too and I loved it.
[04:33] I loved what it gave me and I loved the idea of, you know, performing and this was sort of my avenue into it. how is Barry Keoghan in DC and Marvel?
[04:48] "Batman" is DC and "Eternals" is Marvel. I want to go and, you know, get into DC and get into Marvel.

[05:12] How did Barry Keoghan feel about "Saltburn"? I mean, do you know what I mean? after I seen it the first time?
[05:25] Always very, very proud and grateful to see the final edit. And I'm always like interested in how people receive it. and you know, some people, whatever,
[05:40] I remember Emerald saying it as well like, you know, of your character's up there and he's doing these things is sort of like, I wonder what,
[05:55] you know, I think it pushes you into a place of like, And I think that's part of the whole immersive process Can Barry Keoghan? Yes, he can.
[06:12] Like, is that, there we go. Can Barry Keoghan sing? Ooh. I love obviously singing when no one's around.
[06:28] You know, I think that's beautiful. Yeah, he loves, you know, the K-pop song, and when he sings that, that's absolutely gorgeous.
[06:42] I'm Irish, I mean, that's all we do is sing. Can Barry Keoghan do an American accent? Like any country, I mean it's now a voice, you know,
[06:57] Accent's not so much the tone of the voice, the depth of the voice, where it sits, you know, So I think the accent sort of comes last, if I'm honest.

[07:28] when you're across in the States But yeah, I am a Manchester United fan. I cannot answer that question truly, sincerely.

[09:01] and we get out of the shower, if there's music playing in spaces that we own, you know, when we're alone. and me and Emerald discussed it was like,
[09:15] not just saying it because it was me naked, but seeing this figure, these limbs move around, And to have a song like "More Than the Dance Floor"
[09:31] I think it was iconic. Okay, that's all the boards and thank you for having me. Until next time and keep searching all your weird questions.
