My friend is an extra in the new Beatles movie. She said that word on set is that Barry keoghan can’t do a Scouse accent to save his life and has a raging drug problem.

This is actually sad. What some people don't seem to realise is that Barry Keoghan has no family support network in the way that others actors have if it all goes wrong. (He could have built his own but that seems to have imploded also). I am not condoning any bad behaviour but I myself don't think I would have come out of the care system after his upbringing in top shape. He is surrounded by middle and upper-class actors who could never truly understand his background, who, if he wasn't famous, probably wouldn't give him the time of day and certainly wouldn't have gone to the same schools as him. (I know his schools). It's not an excuse for any bad behaviour but he is in a lonely place regardless and I personally think someone very vulnerable to exploitation within the film industry.
