JEREMY IRVINE

Jeremy William Fredric Smith (born July 1990), better known as Jeremy Irvine, is an English actor. 

In late 2011, Irvine starred as the leading character in the epic war film War Horse, which was nominated for six Academy Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, and five BAFTAs. The film became a box office success and turned Irvine into an overnight film star. He also earned widespread critical acclaim for his role in the independent film Now Is Good, leading critics to list him among Hollywood's fastest-rising stars. He received critical praise by earning a reputation as a method actor after he went for two months without food and performed his own torture scene stunts in the film adaptation of The Railway Man. 

In 2012, Irvine portrayed Pip in the adaptation of Charles Dickens's Great Expectations. In 2014, he starred in A Night in Old Mexico and the film adaptation of the novel The World Made Straight. He starred in the 2015 film The Woman in Black: Angel of Death and will play Percy Bysshe Shelley in the upcoming biopic Mary Shelley's Monster.
