5 Incredible Actors You Might Not Know Are Irish
Some of the most famous actors in the world call Ireland home. It’s no surprise, some of the greatest artists and writers in history were from Ireland. James Joyce and Oscar Wilde are some of the first to come to mind. There must be something in the water, or the beautiful green rolling hills.
Sometimes, it can be hard to tell if an actor is Irish, British, or Australian. The accents are very similar. However, there are always little ways to tell. Irish tends to sound more sing-songy. It’s one of my favorite accents in the world. I wish I had one so badly.
Making this list, I was surprised to see how many talented Irish actors are currently in the game. In fact, at the top of their game. At the top of everybody’s game, really. Irish actors have taken home some handsome hardware recently. They’ve also starred in some of the biggest movies of the year. There’s even been an Irish James Bond!
Lately, Irish actors have starred in massive blockbusters, successful Indies, comedies, action flicks, dramas, and more. So, once the party dies down and the keg is emptied out, and you’re ready for a movie to fall asleep to, consider one of these movies starring an Irish actor!
Here’s the list of 5 incredibly talented actors who you might not know are Irish. Or, maybe you knew or forgot. Either way, Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
