After a six-year break from acting, Game of Thrones alum is ready to make his return to the small screen. 

Jack Gleeson, best known for playing King Joffrey on HBO’s critically acclaimed drama, has been cast in the BBC comedy Out of Her Mind from comedian Sara Pascoe. Also on board is Simon Pegg and Nick Frost as executive producers. The series will be distributed by Sony Pictures Television.

The six-part series will explore what it takes to survive heartbreak and familial dysfunction, according to BBC. 

“‘Out Of Her Mind’ is a direct expression of my mind. We’ve turned my brain into a theme-park, and everyone’s invited,” said Pascoe. “The cast are INCREDIBLE and I can’t wait for people to see what we’ve made.”
