Jack Gleeson | Student

His character as Joffrey Baratheon of the Game of Thrones saga has been critically received. Yet, Jack Gleeson did not seem to be too keen on continuing his career in Hollywood. He had been acting since he was eight years old, with some of his projects being A Shine of Rainbows, Batman Begins, and Reign of Fire. After the series ended, the actor entered semi-retirement from acting and took part in independent theaters. Getting tired of that, too, he fully retired and enrolled at Trinity College.

He was a college student from 2010 to 2015 at Trinity College, where he studied theology and philosophy. Gleeson was also elected as a scholar at the university in 2012. It is here where he met the future co-founders of Collapsing Horse Theater Company. Due to the fact that he is very resourceful, it is unlikely he even had to get student loans!
