While English actress, Daisy Edgar-Jones, his co-star and complicated love interest, known as Marianne Sheridan in the show, was snubbed for Outstanding Lead actress, the two’s on and off-screen friendship renders the same.
Mescal shared his disappointment with Vulture and said “If it was me I would have given her all the love in that category. I can't speak highly enough of the work she did on the show.”
Prior to this Irish hunk’s breakout role in Normal People, he made a name for himself as a mighty good stage actor. Mescal had also starred in a hilarious TV commercial for the sausage brand Denny.
Amongst his other skills, the Emmy nominee Mescal also has a lovely singing voice. Yes, he really is perfect. He is a huge fan of folk-pop music and will be performing tonight, July 30, with one of his favorite artists, Dermot Kennedy.

The 28-year old singer said “I reached out a little while ago. His career was moving at such a mental rate, and I literally reached out as another fellow Irish creative. I wanted to say ‘hi’ and I hoped he was enjoying the madness. I basically just hoped that he was in a good place with it, so that was it.”
As their bromance is flourishing, their creative ideas are beginning to cumulate. Who knows, maybe Mescal will try for a Grammy next.
