In a one-on-one interview between Jacob Elordi and Barry Keoghan for British Vogue, the actors discussed what drew them to work on Saltburn, which was written and directed by Emerald Fennell.
In the interview Elordi, who plays rich kid Felix Cotton reveals that he was the one who drew Fennell’s attentions toward the Banshees of Inisherin actor.
He then quipped, “Then she said she wanted Timothée Chalamet for it, and I said, ‘Have you thought about Barry Keoghan?’” Meanwhile, Barry burst into a fit of laughter at Jacob’s remark.
It didn't take long for social media to weigh in on who they think would have been the perfect choice to play Oliver.
Regardless of how you feel about Saltburn (there has been online division regarding the film), you can't deny that Barry Keoghan was 100,000% the right choice to play the obsessive Oliver Quick.
Saltburn is available on Prime Video.
