Sam Keeley

Line up for Sam Keeley's next movie gets even better

As if starring opposite Bradley Cooper and Sienna Miller wasn't enough, now superstar Uma Thurman has come on board for Tullamore native Sam Keeley's new film.

The son of local musician Brendan Keeley, Sam is currently in London for shooting on the movie that's set to continue from the end of this week until late September.

His latest film was to be called 'Chef', but it's understood as a result of Jon Favreau having a film of the same name out at the moment, the John Wells' directed movie about a bad boy chef has been re-titled 'Adam Jones'.

Sam will play the part of young chef David to Cooper's Adam, a partied out chef who comes back from Paris to redeem himself with a new restaurant.

Sam’s acting career began in ‘The Other Side of Sleep’, which was shot in Offaly in 2010. Since then he’s appeared in ‘Misfits’, ‘Raw’, ‘This Must Be The Place’ and ‘What Richard Did’. He can be seen later this year in ‘Monsters: Dark Continent’ and Ron Howard’s ‘Heart of the Sea’.
