}}Jack Gleeson (born 20 May 1992)[1] is an Irish actor, who won critical acclaim playing Joffrey Baratheon in the HBO television series Game of Thrones (2011–2014). Since retiring from screen acting in 2014, Gleeson has been part of his Dublin-based theatre company Collapsing Horse. 

Early life

Gleeson was born in Cork, Ireland and raised in Ranelagh, Dublin where he attended Gonzaga College. He has two older sisters, Rachel and Emma, who are also involved in theatre in Ireland.[2] He attended drama classes with them when he was young as well as performing in youth theatre.

Gleeson attended Trinity College, Dublin between 2010 and 2015.[3] He studied philosophy and theology and was elected a scholar at the university in 2012.[4][5][6] At Trinity, Gleeson was a member of the DU Players, where he met his future co-founders of Collapsing Horse Theatre Company.[2]

Career

Gleeson began acting at the age of 7, in the Independent Theatre Workshop.[7] His first roles were in films such as Reign of Fire (2002), Batman Begins (2005), Shrooms (2007), and A Shine of Rainbows (2009).[8] In 2010, he appeared in a leading role in All Good Children. The reviewer for Variety magazine considered Gleeson "the pic's big discovery".[9]

Gleeson starred as Joffrey Baratheon in the HBO series Game of Thrones.[10] He cites Joaquin Phoenix's portrayal of Commodus in Gladiator (2000) as an influence on his performance.[11]

In 2012, Gleeson indicated an intention to retire from acting to pursue an academic career once his work on Game of Thrones was finished.[6] In 2014, Gleeson retired from acting after concluding his work in Game of Thrones. In an interview, he stated that while he had previously been interested in pursuing academia, he had since 'gone off that idea'.[12]

Gleeson is a founder, producer and company member of Collapsing Horse Theatre Company, based in Dublin.[13] He was part of the original cast in the company's first theatre production Monster / Clock, a children's theater show which premiered in Dublin in 2012.[14] He next appeared in the company's 'lo-fi comedy' Bears in Space which premiered in Dublin in July 2014 and took part of the 2014 Edinburgh Festival Fringe.[15] The show was well reviewed and had revival productions in Dublin and London in 2015 and off-Broadway in New York in September 2016 as part of Origin's 1st Irish theatre festival.[16][17]

Personal life

Gleeson is a notably private person. Gleeson lives in Dublin; he previously lived in London.[3]

In May 2018, Gleeson publicly supported the repeal of Ireland's Eighth Amendment.[18]
