Tom Vaughan-Lawlor: Episode 392

This week, Tom Vaughan-Lawlor makes his much-anticipated return to An Irishman Abroad. A lot has happened in Tom's life and career since his first appearance on the show almost 7 years ago.  Tom tells us about his incredible Marvel experiences which includes a hilarious audition tape story (34:00) and he also details his role as Colm in Rialto and what it was like working alongside Peter Mackie Burns - the director who was not afraid to call bullshit on him (4:00). Tom opens up about his battle with nerves while staring in the one-man show Howie the Rookie (27:00), the challenge of finding a good work-life balance (49:00) before finally teasing his exciting new project Frank of Ireland alongside Domhnall and Brian Gleeson (59:00).  This is just a taster.
