Eddie Marsan has been seen in a wide variety of films, from blockbuster hits to quirky independents. He has also been honored for his collaborations with acclaimed filmmaker Mike Leigh. His performance in Leigh's 2004 drama "Vera Drake" brought Marsan his first British Independent Film Award, for Best Supporting Actor, as well as a nomination for a London Film Critics Circle Award. Marsan more recently won a British Independent Film Award, a London Film Critics Circle Award, and a National Society of Film Critics Award, for Best Supporting Actor, for his role as the troubled driving teacher in Leigh's slice-of-life comedy "Happy-Go-Lucky."

Marsan recently starred in "London Boulevard," opposite Colin Farrell and Keira Knightley; "Sherlock Holmes," opposite Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law and Rachel McAdams; and alongside Zac Efron and Claire Danes in Richard Linklater's drama "Me and Orson Welles," in which he portrays John Houseman, the American actor and producer who ran the Mercury Theatre with Welles in the late 1930s. Marsan also stars in "The Disappearance of Alice Creed," which premiered at the 2009 Toronto Film Festival. Marsan's other film credits include "Hancock," "Miami Vice," "The Illusionist," "Mission: Impossible III," "V for Vendetta," "21 Grams," and Martin Scorsese's "Gangs of New York," to name only a few. Among Marsan's forthcoming features include "Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows" and "Snow White and the Huntsman."

For television, Marsan's extensive credits include the award-winning BBC miniseries "Criminal Justice" and "Little Dorrit," and the BBC2/PBS drama "God on Trial," in which he played a traumatized father imprisoned in a Nazi concentration camp. He also stars in the upcoming BBC telefilm "Dive."

Born and raised in Bethnal Green, East London, Marsan served an apprenticeship as a printer before beginning his acting career. He later attended the Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts and the Academy of the Science of Acting & Directing.
