Meet Barley Keoughan

Two of our favorite working actors with fairly similar names -- namely Barry Keoghan and Riley Keough -- who have both worked with Andrea Arnold previously and to great effect (him in Bird and her in American Honey) are next teaming up together! They will star in the next film from Beanpole director  Kantemir Balagov -- as if we needed further proof that these two are the real deal, seeking out real filmmakers making challenging works of art, there we are. I personally felt mixed on Beanpole but it was striking nonetheless and it certainly made Balagov one to keep an eye on. The new movie will be called Butterfly Jam and it's about "a tight-knit U.S. community of Circassian immigrants and a complicated relationship between a father and son, in which the son imbues his father with qualities he doesn’t actually possess." Okay! I'll watch that. And since we're here already hit the jump for a couple bonus shots of Barry that I've never posted before...
