Tim Roth stars as Dr. Cal Lightman on FOX's "Lie to Me."

Tim Roth has made a career of playing notable characters in independent films. Tim Roth made his feature debut in "Rob Roy" opposite Liam Neeson and Jessica Lange in a role that earned him Golden Globe and Academy Award nominations for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama.

Tim Roth was most recently seen in "The Incredible Hulk" opposite Ed Norton, Francis Ford Coppola's "Youth Without Youth" and "Funny Games" opposite Naomi Watts.

Tim Roth's appearance in Sam Shepard's off-Broadway production of "The God of Hell" marked Roth's return to the theater. Early in his career, Tim Roth appeared in and received tremendous reviews for his role in the stage production of Kafka's "The Metamorphosis."

Tim Roth's first job in front of the camera was the lead in the controversial British Prix Italia Award-winning telefilm "Made in Britain." His second project followed on the heels of his award-winning work when he starred in Michael Leigh's critically acclaimed film "Meantime."

As his success continued, Tim Roth starred in over 15 film and television projects including Stephen Frears' "The Hit," for which he won the Standard Award for Best Newcomer; "The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover"; "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead" with Gary Oldman; and Robert Altman's "Vincent and Theo," in which he portrayed Vincent Van Gogh.

Brought up on American films like "Taxi Driver" and "Mean Streets," Tim Roth always wanted to come to the U.S., so he jumped at the chance when he was asked to take part in a publicity tour for "Vincent and Theo." Shortly thereafter, Tim Roth made the U.S. his permanent home, and has since continued on the same path with off-beat films.

Tim Roth gained worldwide recognition for his roles in the Quentin Tarantino films "Reservoir Dogs" and "Pulp Fiction." In "Reservoir Dogs," Tim Roth portrayed "Mr. Orange" alongside Harvey Keitel, Michael Madsen, Chris Penn and Steve Buscemi. In "Pulp Fiction," Tim Roth was part of an all-star ensemble cast that included John Travolta, Uma Thurman, Samuel Jackson and Harvey Keitel.

Tim Roth made his directorial debut in 1999 with the critically acclaimed adaptation of Alexander Stuart's "The War Zone" starring Ray Winstone. The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival to rave reviews and was also at the Cannes Film Festival and Toronto Film Festival.

Tim Roth's other credits include Tim Burton's remake of "Planet of the Apes" opposite Mark Wahlberg and Helena Bonham Carter; "Lucky Numbers" directed by Nora Ephron; Giuseppe Tornatore's "Legend of 1900"; Werner Herzog's first English language film, "Invincible"; "Jumpin' at the Boneyard"; "Bodies, Rest and Motion"; "Murder in the Heartland"; "Heart of Darkness" opposite John Malkovich; "Four Rooms"; "Little Odessa"; "Captives"; "Gridlock'd"; Woody Allen's "Everyone Says I Love You"; "Hoodlum"; "Deceiver"; "Silver City"; "Even Money" opposite Danny Devito and Kim Basinger; and Wim Wenders' "Don't Come Knockin'."

Tim Roth was born in London and currently resides in Los Angeles.
