BIO

Stage-trained, elegant, arrogant-looking and immensely talented British actor who likes to alternate his work between Hollywood and Europe, film and stage, and leads and character roles. Irons is creative and up for a challenge, but his somewhat enigmatic persona has perhaps prevented him from becoming completely embraced by the public.

 

TRIVIA

  • The first film I saw with Jeremy Irons was also (in my opinion) his best: The magnificent role of Claus von Bülow in Reversal of Fortune
