English actor Stephen Graham (English Stephen Graham) was born in Liverpool, UK, on August 3, 1973 in an ordinary family. His father is a social worker and his mother is a nurse. After high school, Stephen Graham attended the prestigious London College of Art “Rose Bruford College”, from which he had to leave due to a conflict with teachers.
His first film work was as Tommy in Guy Ritchie’s Snatch in 2000, where he stands out for his Liverpool accent. Then there were roles in the films Brothers in Arms (2001), Gangs of New York (2002), Goal! (2005), Scoundrel (2006) and work in the English series The Innocence Project (2006-2007). On the side of his father, Stephen Graham is a descendant of black immigrants from Jamaica, which did not prevent him from perfectly playing the role of racist psychopath Combo in Shane Meadows' This Is England (2007). This work was positively appreciated by many film critics. And while working on the role of baby Nelson in the movie “Johnny D.” Stephen Graham had to work hard on his pronunciation to be like a native of Chicago, in which he starred with famous Johnny Depp and Christian Bale.
Some journalists accuse Stephen Graham of misogyny, homophobia, racist tendencies and involvement in the drug trade. All this nonsense the actor categorically denies. During his career, Stephen Graham played a Jew, a Liverpool resident and a Chicago gangster, a Scot and an English racist. Most likely, such a wide creative range of the actor and gives rise to such rumors and gossip.
For his creative biography, the actor managed to star in almost fifty films and TV series of famous English and American directors and producers. One of Graham’s most recent works was his role as Scrum in Pirates of the Caribbean. On Strange Shores, released in 2011. /
