He looks like Russian actor from thread "North Pontid type". Only with hazel eyes:
Alexander Marakulin, Russian musical actor

I don’t know if he could easily pass on Ireland. He has
An immediate strong Irish look however.
Sister Joan look strongly Brit-Irish

Doesn't look typical but can pass as a minority type. He looks a bit more Welsh or Welsh-like than to me but some of his features seem Irish like his lips or upper lip perhaps.
Cusack is an Irish family name of Norman origin, originally from Cussac in Guienne (Aquitaine), France. The surname died out in England, but is common in Ireland, where it was imported at the time of the Norman invasion of Ireland in the 12th century
For some reason I've always thought his surname was Slavic but with anglicized spelling.
Those Normans sure loved to sow their seeds in Britain.

My name is of hiberno-norman as well but many of the normans that went into Ireland were Cambro-Normans or Welsh-Normans :
My G25 it would be interesting to see Cusack's G25 :

Normans in Ireland assimilated very quickly. The Normans became "more Irish than the Irish themselves". They took on Irish speech and habits and intermarried with Irish clans much to the dismay of Britain. The Statutes of Kilkenny were brought in to stop this assimilation but it was ignored.
This was one of the reasons why Henry II invaded Ireland. He wanted to assert control over the Normans there. He didn't want a Hiberno-Norman state on his doorstep.

This is why many Catholic Irish have Norman surnames.
