Biography

  • Ed Ward, was born in Cheshire, England in 1978. A keen rugby player and lover of the arts, he first went on stage when he attended the King's School Worcester and joined the drama society at the age of 13. He went on to Trinity College Dublin, where he performed in several English and French-speaking plays. He's had main roles in many plays in London and the West End stage and was once described as "a whirlwind of energy - captivating and dangerous".

    He now mainly acts on screen and plays various eclectic characters from posh Sloanes, violent Russian villains, drunken war journalists, to off-beat comic types, such as an archetypal barnstorming English hippy in the film A Facebook Romance that won him the award for best supporting male actor at the Monaco International Film Festival. Ed has also been deeply convincing as a British military leader on screen. Hardly recognisable, he even turned his hand to play a feisty young Winston Churchill in the Great Arab Revolt.

Quotes

  • What annoys me the most? It has to be thieves. They're mindless. They steal your things and sell them to buy things they want. They could at least bloody steal the things they want. Someone once stole a signed picture of Daniel O'Donnell that was addressed to me - what could be more pointless?
