Jack Gleeson in THE FAMOUS FIVE
GAME OF THRONES star Jack Gleeson will make a return to acting in a BBC adaption of Enid Blyton’s THE FAMOUS FIVE, almost ten years after he announced he was quitting Hollywood. Gleeson will star as Wentworth in the series, which famously follows young five explorers as they find themselves caught up in mysteries and adventures. The series is set to debut on the BBC, and will be based on Enid Blyton’s 21 stories which were published between 1942 to 1962 – however which specific story the series will take inspiration from is unknown. Filming is currently underway in the south of England.
From GAME OF THRONES to HOLDING
GAME OF THRONES changed Conleth Hill’s life forever. But of course the world keeps spinning even after you’ve appeared in the biggest TV smashes of all time. And for the Co Antrim-raised actor that next chapter has involved crossing the length of Ireland to star in an adaptation of Graham Norton’s 2016 small-town murder mystery, HOLDING.
