I Know That Face

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.

For our final episode of the season, we're covering a Korean-American superstar. Starting out on The Walking Dead, Steven Yeun has gone from strength to strength on both sides of the Pacific. He's made indie action horrors like Joe Lynch's Mayhem, while also collaborating with South Korean auteurs like Bong Joon-ho on Okja and Mickey 17 and Lee Chang-dong on Burning. Yeun has transitioned easily between film and TV with roles in the Prime Video animated superhero show Invincible and on Netflix's series Beef. The actor was Oscar-nominated for his role in 2020's Minari and has consistently worked with interesting directors, such as Jordan Peele on Nope and Boots Riley on Sorry to Bother You.
