Have you all noticed that Barry Keoghan is getting sexier lately? It's true. The Irish actor has been working out and it's like...how can this guy possibly keep getting sexier? One minute he's lusting over Jacob Elordi (who hasn't though) and the next he's sporting some real biceps and posting shirtless Instagram stories. What's he up to? Why is Barry Keoghan getting so sexy? Let's investigate.

Beautiful Barry is enjoying a serious moment. He's already proven that he is the actor who goes there from The Killing of a Sacred Deer to his lovable and annoying character in The Banshees of Inisherin. Like, he's a very good actor. Is he - wait, hold on, let me think - is he becoming my favorite actor??? After watching Saltburn, I think so.
Now if you haven't enjoyed Saltburn yet, then you need to remedy that. I suggest immersing yourself in the film. Put your phone away. Turn down the lights. Watch it on a big screen. Let the gorgeous shots take you away into a fantasy land where Jacob Elordi is playing a coy cat-and-mouse game with Barry Keoghan. From licking Jacob's bathwater to dancing naked in the manor house, Barry Keoghan gets even sexier than sex symbol Elordi in this wild thriller that feels like The Talented Mr. Ripley for a new audience.
Instead of riding off of his hot high from Saltburn, Barry is immersing himself in more films. But what are those films? And why do they include him getting so sexily buff? We know that he has four films coming out in the next year, one of which is a war movie that also stars Austin Butler and Callum Turner.
He is also set to star in Andrea Arnold's next film. If you don't know Andrea Arnold's filmography, let me assure you that she does not miss. From American Honey to Big Little Lies, the director got her start late in life and has consistently turned out award-worthy material. With Barry in her next film, it's bound to be another good one (and it might even have nudity!).
One of the more exciting things on his IMDB coming up section is an untitled project from The Weeknd. It stars Barry and Jenna Ortega. I'm sure that after The Idol, The Weeknd is excited to keep pushing boundaries and serve us sexy and cool projects. Now Barry is involved? I wonder what this will be!
Does any of this answer why he's been working out and looking so sexy? Not entirely. It could be possible that this is just his body now. If that's the case, then I am in trouble. I'm about to be WAY too horny watching all of his upcoming projects. Not that I'm not already way too horny when I watch his scenes from Saltburn. Don't believe me? Just watch:

The biggest rumor is that Barry is beefing up for another Marvel movie. If that's the case, that's cool too. We'll all keep watching!
