is the new comedic thriller that landed on Netflix earlier this month – and it’s already proving to be a favourite.

Having already binge-watched the first five episodes , I can confirm that it’s funny, intriguing and with enough twists and turns to keep you engaged to the end. I caught up with the cast ahead of its premiere to pick their brains on the Irish preoccupation with death, what they hope audiences will take from this show and the other films/series they’ve been loving.

You can see that wit, even in the trailer – there’s kind of a cheerful nihilism throughout. And Will, obviously as the American – your character is an American podcaster with Irish roots… I’m sure many stereotypes exist about such a character. Did you kind of lean into that? Or what was your approach with the role?
