The actor is in Ireland for a new project

He is perhaps best known for his role as the psychopathic druglord Gus Fring in 'Breaking Bad' and 'Better Call Saul', but actor Giancarlo Esposito clearly has a more lighthearted side, too.

The American actor is currently in Ireland for what he calls "a new project coming up soon" and posted several pics from his trip, including some taken at the Forty Foot swimming area in South Dublin - which has clearly become the go-to spot for celebs.

One of them saw him posing with a group of teenagers, with Esposito saying: "Also got to hang with the Irish young bucks at “Forty Foot”, I love the fuckin’ Irish!"

Rather intriguingly, none other than Sharon Stone replied to him, saying "We love you too." Stone is of part-Irish ancestry.

He also posted a picture of a sculpture in the grounds of Trinity College.

It's not clear which project Esposito is in Ireland for - although if we were to take a guess, it might be the forthcoming feature directed by Ishana Shyamalan, 'The Watchers', which she was scouting locations for earlier this year.
