From Mr Darcy to the Roy family
The English actor has moved between period romance, television drama and the Marvel universe.
Great Yarmouth, England
Matthew Macfadyen was born on 17 October 1974 in Great Yarmouth, England. He trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and worked in theatre before building an extensive screen career.
In Joe Wright’s 2005 Pride & Prejudice, Macfadyen played Fitzwilliam Darcy opposite Keira Knightley’s Elizabeth Bennet. The adaptation brought Jane Austen’s characters to a new cinema audience.
His television work includes Tom Wambsgans in Succession, an ambitious executive navigating the Roy family’s struggle for influence. The performance earned him Emmy Awards for supporting actor in a drama series.
In Deadpool & Wolverine, Macfadyen plays Mr. Paradox, an agent of the Time Variance Authority. The role places his screen presence in the fast-moving, irreverent world of the Marvel film.
