"The plan is to become a leading man. I got the
chance there recently to lead a movie and challenge
myself. You're perfect at that, Rob. I admire you for
that. You can do that. I wanted to see, can I do it?
Because I've come into movies supporting and
doing scenes and I love it. It's whatever the role
requires. But I wanted to see, could I lead a movie?
Could I keep the audience engaged? So, that was
my plan. Now it's like, can I continue to do that?"
Irish actor Barry Keoghan, is slowly, but surely
becoming one of the greatest actors of our
generation. Having already delivered an inimitable
range of knock-out supporting performances, he’s
now covering our Winter 23 issue, and ready to step
into the ring as Hollywood’s most unorthodox leading
man. With his legendary co-star, actor Robert
Pattinson, he talks sharing the screen, the power of
plastic spoons, and being selective.
