Netflix Movies Starring Redmond Gleeson
Irish actor Redmond Gleeson was born Martin Gleeson in Dublin, Ireland, where he began his acting career. Born into an educated and professional family, Gleeson dreamed of becoming an actor from a young age. He was greatly inspired by the works of James Joyce, by the appeal of American cinema and also by his hero of film, Burt Lancaster. From his home in Ireland, he moved to Australia where (in his own words) he threatened to lead a life of playing Rugby and drinking beer until he received a scholarship to a university in Ohio. Gleeson took this opportunity to study theater arts and after graduating he moved to Aspen, Colorado where he began doing whatever work he could find, including working for a while as a dishwasher. Eventually Gleeson took a job working on the ski fields and it was there that he met his future wife, Mardiah. Read more on iMDB
