Paul Mescal is going from strength to strength, landing a new role in an upcoming Irish thriller
Starring alongside ‘The Crown’ actor Tom Burke, the new Irish thriller entitled Bring Them Down is based in the West of Ireland, following the story of an Irish shepherd who enters into a feud with his neighbour after his heard of sheep are mysteriously killed.
It’s a busy time for Paul as he has just recently wrapped up on filming for Maggie Gyllenhaal’s ‘The Lost Daughter’, and has now begun filming for Benjamin Millepied’s Carmen.
Filming is taking place in New South Wales, Australia. Paul has recently opened up about being away from family, admitting that it’s difficult.
“All I still just really want is to see my grandparents. This was my first Christmas away from home and had Covid not happened there is no way I would have spent those months anywhere but with my family.”
Speaking to the Daily Telegraph about ringing his brother when he missed him, Paul said:
“I rang my brother, because I was feeling a little down, and he just said, `Oh will you just be … happy you’re in Sydney!’ And he’s right. Now perspective is my best friend.”
It is yet to be confirmed when Bring Them Down will begin production.
