- 'Calvary' (2014) It turns out that John Michael McDonagh is just as great of a filmmaker as his brother, Martin. The other McDonagh filmmaker inspired Gleeson to give his most commanding lead performance to date in the 2014 thriller Calvary, which centers on the difficulty of justifying religious faith within a cruel world.
- 'The Banshees of Inisherin' (2022) The Banshees of Inisherin is among the best tragicomedies. After deciding to focus the rest of his life on pursuing the arts, Colm (Gleeson) decides to give up his best friend, Pádraic (Farrell), whom he considers boring and unstimulating.
- 'In Bruges' (2008) Before reuniting in The Banshees of Inisherin, McDonagh, Gleeson, and Farrell worked together on another Irish classic with an absurdly dark sense of humor.

Who else BUT Gleeson could have played the gruff and ever-vigilant Mad-Eye Moody in the film adaptations of the Harry Potter films?
Here, Gleeson played the more calm and reasonable half of a criminal odd couple with Colin Farrell, incongruously set in the quaint Belgian city of Bruges. It was his first collaboration with Martin McDonagh.
From the Irish animation studio Cartoon Saloon, "The Secret of Kells" won over imaginations and hearts all over the world and was nominated for the Best Animates Feature Film at the Academy Awards. Gleeson voiced the character of Abbot Cellach, who does what he thinks is right to protect Kells from the Vikings.
In this first film from John Michael McDonagh, brother of Martin McDonagh, Gleeson starred as Gerry Boyle, an irreverent yet brave police officer in Galway who gets involved with an FBI drug bust.
Another collaboration with John Michael McDonagh, Gleeson plays a priest with a death threat hanging over his head to atone for the sins of others in the Catholic church. As darkly funny as "The Guard."
While no one could steal the show in "Paddington 2" quite like Hugh Grant, Brendan Gleeson lands a close second as Knuckles McGinty, a hardened criminal who turns out to have a heart of gold and top-notch culinary skills.
Sadly we don't get to see Gleeson stepping about in this imaginative spin on the hit Irish dance show "Riverdance" where he voices the villainous Huntsman.
"I just don't like ya no more," Gleeson, playing Colm, says in Martin McDonagh's latest Irish-centered film that became the most Oscar-nominated Irish movie ever. Gleeson scored several nominations for the role, including at the Oscars, Golden Globes, BAFTAs, and IFTAs. * Originally published in March 2018. Last updated in March 2023.
