I had just finished a Business degree in Ireland. I knew I didn\u2019t want to do that and had been an active member of the drama society on campus which sowed the seeds. However it was whilst I was in Chicago and seeing the incredible productions in theatres like the Goodman, Steppenwolf, Shakespeare on the Lake and the Second City Comedy Club that the idea became fully formed to me. The joy of the artists on stage, the fulfilment. I knew it was what I wanted for myself too.<\/p>\n<p><b>Did you ever imagine you\u2019d be as successful as you are now?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m an extremely positive person and once I apply myself to something I\u2019m pretty much relentless in seeing it through, so from that side of my personality I suppose I always believed in myself in this career. But so much of becoming a successful actor isn\u2019t down to you. The decision of whether you get a job or not and are thus deemed \u201csuccessful\u201d is a decision that lies with others. The actors\u2019 role in all this equation is to be ready to take advantage of any opportunities when they do arrive. I\u2019ve always tried to be the most prepared, but \u2018on-it\u2019 guy walking into the room. A lot of the time it doesn\u2019t work out, but then sometimes it does. And here we are.<\/p>\n<p><b>Well it certainly did for you. Who are the actors whose careers you sought to emulate as you began your own?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m an enormous fan of Liam Neeson, always have been. He\u2019s an immense actor but also from what I hear (I\u2019ve never met him) a wonderful man also. In my teens, when I wasn\u2019t even interested in acting, I still remember seeing his performances in \u2018Schindlers List\u2019 and \u2018Michael Collins\u2019 and I was blown away by what he achieved on screening those films. Ultimately though it\u2019s impossible to emulate any one actor\u2019s pathway. You can just take encouragement and heart from their personal journeys to where they\u2019ve gotten, but then apply yourself to telling your own<\/p>\n<p><b>How does it feel to be involved in a film that adds a new chapter to the pop-culture phenomenon that is the character of \u201cDracula\u201d?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m very proud of our take on this ever popular theme that is vampires and \u2018Dracula\u2019 himself. It\u2019s just a huge expansive legend that has taken many guises over the last 100 years or so, but ours is right at the coal face of how it all started. Set in the mysterious and mystical backdrop of Transylvania at that time whilst the very real, and historically accurate, threat of the might of the Turkish army looms large just over the next mountain top. It\u2019s great to have been part of telling part of that story.<\/p>\n<p><b>You worked on the film with Charles Dance. He&#8217;s a legend, did you learn anything from him on set?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Absolutely. I\u2019ve been blessed to work with some enormous box office names in the last eighteen months but for me I always find myself studying and observing the senior guys a lot. The gents that have been doing this for years and have such ownership and assuredness in their performances. Bill Murray (Monuments Men), Tom Wilkinson, (Good People) or more recently Charles Dance. Charles has such grace and poise in how he prepares, and then subsequently delivers his roles. There is a sure-footedness, but also a wonderful mischief, to many of his performances \u2013 particularly as Master Vampire in Dracula Untold. He can also make a barking dog scurry whimpering out of a make-up trailer simply by growling back at him. True story, I\u2019ve seen it.<\/p>\n<p><b>Yeah you\u2019ve worked with some of the most famous names in the world: George Clooney and Cate Blanchett to name but two. Do you ever feel star-struck walking onto set?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t really. For me there is great re-assurance and validation in that when you arrive on set, you\u2019re the guy they chose. The choices you made be it in an audition or whether previous work &#8211; you\u2019re here now so do your job. When I first met George it was on set right before we shot on a very busy and hectic day. There was a great energy and focus about the day so you get swept up in that and play your part to keep it all running smoothly and keep the boss happy, AKA George Clooney in that case.<\/p>\n<p><b>So having done TV, movies and performed on stage, which is your favourite medium?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I learned an immense amount from my time on stage early in my career. It was just what I needed, right when I needed it. Right now I feel like screen is where I\u2019d like to focus myself. The whole process just excites me and leaves me wanting more. I will go back to stage at some point, but for now I\u2019m enjoying the opportunities that are coming my way.<\/p>\n<p><b>Your success has come pretty quickly, it seems like in the last year you\u2019ve gone from doing TV shows in Ireland to having roles in major Hollywood pictures. To what do you attribute this steep rise?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Haha, my brother likes to call that the \u201cseven year overnight success\u201d. I left drama school then, and believe me there have been a lot of lean and hard times in between. Support from friends and family has been crucial. That said, yes, since around the beginning of last year things turned a bit I suppose. There is no one element to which I could contribute the rapid turnaround though if I had to say something I would say I have become infinitely more at ease in the audition room and have learned to enjoy the quieter in between times, which can be hard. I moved to London in Spring 2012 after opportunities in Dublin had become harder to come by, and all of that was hard to take \u2013 it took a toll on me. So I came to London with a general acceptance of things. I stopped over thinking auditions or waiting for the phone to ring. I let myself be free to just thoroughly enjoy my audition experience, to enjoy presenting my interpretation of how I saw this character engaging in this scene, and shared that with the people in the room. Once it was over then, I would leave the room and genuinely barely ever think about it again. It was done. Let it go.<\/p>\n<p><b>How have your family and friends back in Ireland taken your newfound success? <\/b><\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re really happy for me, because they know how much hard workand tough times have led up to a point like this. All along they\u2019ve seenevery bit of TV work as it came along, but en mass they\u2019ve all come tothe various stage productions which has always meant a lot. At the end ofthe day though when you\u2019re back with your close family and friends,nothing ever really changes which is just how it should be.<\/p>\n<p><b>Working so much you must be away from home a lot. Do you miss Ireland when you\u2019re away, or do you see yourself settling down somewhere like LA?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m always away from home, and there are times I miss it for sure. This summer I spent a lot of time in Romania shooting \u2018Sons of Liberty\u2019 and half way through there really was a point I just wanted to walk around my hometown. It passes though. I truly love what I do. My friends and family know that, and I love be part of projects that they\u2019ll enjoy watching and to make the proud. I\u2019ve come a long way from where I started but honestly these days, it actually just feels like the very beginning of a long road. I like following the work right now, so wherever that is fine by me. London is \u2018home\u2019, maybe LA someday, just not just yet.<\/p>\n<p><b>You\u2019ve managed to play an extraordinary range of characters thus far in your career: is variety something that you prioritise when choosing your roles?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Variety is very important for sure. So far I\u2019ve played a number of historical period characters, but each with very difference backgrounds and purpose. The physical transformation is also something I really enjoy. I think when you\u2019re choosing a role it\u2019s important that it challenges you in a new way that what you\u2019ve done before.<\/p>\n<p><b>Who is your favourite character that you\u2019ve played?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>My favourite character I think thus far would be Dumitru in Dracula Untold. He\u2019s a bit different to all the characters around him but has a very clear purpose along with a great loyalty to those around him.<\/p>\n<p><b>In Monuments Men you were directed by George Clooney. Did you find it helpful being directed by someone who understands what it\u2019s like to be in front of the camera as well as behind it?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Without a doubt. It separates him from a lot of other directors. He has that know-how both sides of the lens which is a huge asset to any film maker but in addition he as a person is very articulate on top of that. He\u2019s succinct in what it is exactly he\u2019s after in any given scene, or moment. He passes that along, and everything moves forward really quickly as a result. The set of Monuments Men is possibly the smoothest I\u2019ve ever worked on. The actors are of course in great hands with George, but also his crew are like an extension of his next thought. Once he\u2019s just about done on a shot already the wheels are in motion to quickly set up the next one. Very fluid and slick.<\/p>\n<p><b>Could you ever see yourself going down a similar path and getting involved in directing or producing?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I would love to at some point. Maybe in 3 or 4 years, or whenever the right opportunity came along. More recently I have become more engaged behind the camera with producers and directors to get a grasp of the process from their viewpoint. Trying to gain some insights there. So at some point I think for sure I\u2019ll end up in a producer capacity but now my focus is very much on acting.<\/p>\n<p><b>That&#8217;s understandable. Lastly, hat does the future hold for you?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Hopefully some interesting professional challenges and opportunities as well as personal adventures. I\u2019m looking forward to whatever comes next.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So are we!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With \u2018Dracula Untold\u2019 now screening, we get the
