He also turned up in episodes of Casualty, Waking the Dead, Cadfael, A Touch of Frost, Midsomer Murders and Sunburn. His first film part was the title role in 1997's Prince Valiant. He's since appeared in Quills, Trinity and Perfect. Arguably his biggest British TV role came in NY-LON. He began to get noticed in Hollywood thanks to the miniseries The Starter Wife. He's played vampire Bill in American drama True Blood since 2008, although he's no stranger to televisual vampires having appeared in two episodes of Ultraviolet in 1998.
Quote:
"I'll get 10 or 11-year-olds coming up and asking for my autograph, and I say, ‘Have you seen that show?' and they go, ‘Yeah, love it.' I couldn't sit in the same room as my mother and watch that show. I mean, it's seriously racy!"
