Ralph Fiennes (Actor) .. Joe
Born: December 22, 1962 in Ipswich
Best Known For: Schindler's List and The English Patient.
Early-life: Ralph Nathaniel Twisleton-Wykeham-Fiennes was born on December 22, 1962, in Suffolk. He's the oldest of six children, and says his brothers and sisters were his earliest audiences. His father Mark was a photographer and his mother, Jennifer Lash, was a painter, novelist and travel writer. His cousin is explorer Sir Ranulph Fiennes. The family moved 15 times during his childhood. After A-levels he completed a foundation course at Chelsea College of Art & Design, then attended Rada.
Career: Fiennes' film debut was in Wuthering Heights opposite Juliette Binoche in 1992. It was his performances in that and the acclaimed 1990 TV drama A Dangerous Man: Lawrence After Arabia that impressed Steven Spielberg so much he cast him in Schindler's List. That movie launched his Hollywood career and he was soon snapped up for Quiz Show, Strange Days, The English Patient, The End of the Affair and Red Dragon. In 1995, he won a Tony Award for his role as Hamlet on Broadway. More recently, Fiennes has worked in such diverse projects as Wallace & Gromit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, The Constant Gardener, The White Countess, In Bruges, The Reader, Clash of the Titans, Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang and four Harry Potter movies. He made his directorial debut with Coriolanus in 2011, and is the Bond franchise's latest M.
Quote: 'It's Rafe, actually.'
Trivia: He won a Tony Award for his performance in a 1995 production of Hamlet.
Donald Sutherland (Actor) .. Thorne
Born: July 17, 1935 in Saint John, Canada
Best Known For: MASH, Don't Look Now and Kelly's Heroes.
Early-life: Donald McNichol Sutherland was born on July 17, 1935, in Saint John, Canada, and was raised in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia. He became a DJ at the age of 14 on a local radio station, before studying engineering and drama at the University of Toronto, where he was evicted from his lodgings after hurling a sink out of a window. He moved to London, where he attended the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. A spell in repertory theatre followed.
Career: Sutherland appeared in several British TV dramas before making his film debut in 1964's Crypt of Horror. He named his eldest son after its director, Warren Kiefer. More small-screen and low-budget movie projects followed until 1967's The Dirty Dozen. That led to bigger roles in acclaimed films, including 1970's MASH, which made him a star. Impressive yet occasionally offbeat performances followed in films such as Kelly's Heroes, Klute, Don't Look Now, The Eagle Has Landed, Animal House, Ordinary People and JFK. More recently he's featured in Dirty Sexy Money, Astro Boy (as the voice of President Stone), The Hunger Games and The Pillars of the Earth.
Quote: 'I was up for a great part, but they told me: 'Sorry, you're the best actor, but this part calls for a guy-next-door type. You don't look as if you've ever lived next door to anyone.''
Trivia: Sutherland started blogging for The Huffington Post in 2008.
Lara Flynn Boyle (Actor) .. First Lady
Tom Hollander (Actor) .. Maximilian II
Born: August 25, 1967 in Bristol
Best Known For: Playing inner-city vicar Adam in Rev.
Early-life: Thomas Anthony Hollander was born on August 25, 1967, in Bristol and raised in Oxford by schoolteacher parents. He has an older sister, Julia, who was once the English National Opera's youngest ever female director and is now a writer. Young Tom was a member of the National Youth Theatre and the National Youth Music Theatre. At the age of 14, Tom was offered the lead role in a BBC version of Leon Garfield's John Diamond, and the experience convinced him to take up acting as a career.
Career: Hollander read English at Cambridge where fellow student Sam Mendes directed him in several plays (including a controversial staging of Cyrano de Bergerac) before graduating. He spent nine months as a toy demonstrator at Hamley's before theatre work began rolling in. He won the Ian Charles Award for his performance in The Way of the World in 1992, and hasn't looked back since. When encouraged to try films, he appeared in True Blue and Some Mother's Son and while the films got mixed responses, Hollander stood out as their true star. He went on to appear in Martha, Meet Frank, Daniel and Laurence, Gosford Park, The Lost Prince, Pirates of the Caribbean, Pride and Prejudice, In the Loop, and Any Human Heart. He's also returned to the stage on numerous occasions. Hollander co-created the sitcom Rev, in which he also stars.
Quote: 'To be an actor who remains sane, you've just got to retain a sense of humour. I regularly lose mine, I know I do.'
Trivia: Hollander is a cyclist and runner.
