Brendan Gleeson has poked fun at his appearance on the Leaving Certificate curriculum up to date and has welcomed the change for June 2026.
Gleeson appeared in the Irish paper in the short film Cáca Milis where he plays a blind man (Paul) who gets on his usual train and he sits beside a lady named Catherine, played by Charlotte Bradley.
Greta Gerwig’s blockbuster Barbie movie will be on the Leaving Cert English syllabus by 2026 as well as The Banshees of Inisherin directed by Martin McDonagh in which Gleeson plays Colm Doherty.
