I Know That Face

It's the end of the year, and Andrew and Stephen are joined by Katie McGrath once again to talk about the year in movies and the career of Irish character actor David Wilmot. The gang chat about such 2025 hits as 28 Years Later, F1, Sinners and the just-released Avatar: Fire and Ash. There are also some sneak previews of 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, Marty Supreme, as well as a French film called Flush, where a man gets his head stuck in the toilet. After each picking our top five movies of the year, we turn to David Wilmot and his work in Irish films that defined the 21st Century, such as Intermission, Calvary, The Guard, Lies We Tell and Shadow Dancer.

This week on I Know That Face, Andrew and Stephen take each other to task over their recent Letterboxd reviews, discussing everything from the new movies The Running Man and Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, upcoming releases like Primate, to all five Twilight films. Stephen also argues that TV is officially back, thanks to The Chair Company and Pluribus. After this, we take on the career of Kerry Condon, Tipperary's most famous export. Oscar-nominated for her role in Martin McDonagh's The Banshees of Inisherin, she has been acting since the '90s, appearing in shows like Better Call Saul and Rome, as well as films like Unleashed, F1, In the Land of Saints and Sinners, and the just-released Train Dreams.

The spooky season don't stop on I Know That Face. Assisted again by scream queen Katie McGrath, we talk about what we're watching this Halloween. This includes the middle movies in the Halloween franchise, bad remakes of Pulse and The Thing, slashers like Cherry Falls and Wes Craven's My Soul to Take, as well as '80s cult classic Dead and Buried. Following that is our discussion of Irish actress Ruth Negga's career from its beginnings in the homegrown thrillers Isolation and Trafficked to her Oscar-nominated role in Loving. We also touch on Negga's more recent fare, such as Ad Astra and Passing.

Our resident scream queen, Katie McGrath, rejoins us for our annual Halloween episode. To start, we're talking about our spooky highs and lows of 2025, breaking down the year in horror as we go. Afterwards, we dive into Irish horror, discussing the common themes, monsters and history that stretch from the likes of The Devil's Doorway, The Cellar and The Hole in the Ground through to the more recent Irish language horrors An Taibhse and Fréwaka.

And now for something completely different... Well, not really. I Know That Face will continue to be your favourite character actor-focused podcast, but with a bit of a contemporary twist. For the first ten minutes of each show, we'll be discussing new trailers, new movies or just what we've been watching recently. This week, we're talking about the return of Daniel Day-Lewis in Anemone, the New French Extremity and some movies Stephen recently saw. In character actor territory, we're discussing one of Ireland's favourite sons, Aidan Gillen. From career beginnings in Some Mother's Son to some of his best TV work in Love/Hate and Game of Thrones, as well as his more recent work in Dublin detective drama Barber, we'll examine every smirking, sneering facet of Aidan Gillen's devilish smile.
