Paddy Considine (Actor) .. Pat Morrigan
Best Known For: Playing an ill-fated journalist in The Bourne Ultimatum
Early-life: Born Patrick George Considine in Burton Upon Trent, Staffordshire on September 5, 1973. Paddy grew up on a council estate. In 1990, after enrolling for a National Diploma in Performing Arts at Burton College, he met film-maker Shane Meadows. Paddy went on to study photography at the University of Brighton, where he gained a first-class degree, but returned to acting when Meadows cast him in his 1999 movie A Room For Romeo Brass.
Career: Considine went on to make an impact in the United States thanks to the movies 24 Hour Party People, and In America. In 2004, he co-wrote Meadows' film Dead Man's Shoes, and Ron Howard cast him opposite Russell Crowe in period boxing epic Cinderella Man. In the years since Considine has starred in a mix of critically acclaimed projects, including The Bourne Ultimatum, Hot Fuzz, The World's End, Submarine, and The Double. He's also an accomplished director, with the BAFTA-winning short film Dog Altogether paving the way for critically acclaimed feature Tyrannosaur. That picked up a string of awards around the world, including the BAFTA for Outstanding debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer.
Quote: "Who doesn't grow up with violence? It's there. It's imminent. You can nip down the Co-op for a pint of milk and get your face kicked in."
Trivia: Considine was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome in 2011. He still lives in Burton upon Trent.
