IMDbPro: Do you have any mentors? How did you meet them and what have they taught you?
Fionn O'Shea: I’ve been really lucky that I’ve been able to work with so many people that I look up to who have been great mentors to me. I think I’ve learned so much from everyone on every job both in front and behind the camera, and I’m extremely grateful to all the people who have been so kind to me. Handsome Devil was my first time playing a co-lead and, like everyone, I had complete imposter syndrome at times, but John Butler who was the writer/director was so caring and nurturing that I felt completely at ease and in such safe hands. He’s both a great mentor and a dear friend.
