The film stars Chris O'Dowd as me, and Aisling Bea as my boss.
It's a work of insane genius by John Michell and Antagonist films that I couldn't be prouder to have out there in the world, telling the story of my worst, and best, day at work.
ENJOY!

Welcome to Grayson Manor.
A family legacy.
An experimental prosthetic.
And a very bad idea.
THE RESTORATION AT GRAYSON MANOR combines Gothic horror, dark comedy and melodrama with a distinctly queer perspective, delivering a fresh and twisted take on the Old Dark House movie.
Starring Chris Colfer and Alice Krige.
🎬 Watch the trailer now.
In Irish cinemas 6 November.
