Godson of Alan Rickman.

He was born with a cleft lip which has left him with a vertical scar on his lip.

His favorite film is Un sapore di ruggine e ossa (2012) and during an interview to site "One Room With a View" in March 2014, he declared that it was the last film that made him cry.

He attended the Young Arden Theatre in Faversham before going on to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.

Grandson of Arthur Calder-Marshall.

[on the French films and books he admires] I particularly like the film La regina Margot (1994) and Il conte di Montecristo (1998) with Gérard Depardieu, both adapted from Alexandre Dumas novels. Watching them made me realise what Dumas does so well; revenge is obviously a prevalent theme and there are many stories in that genre, but what he writes about so brilliantly is the cost of revenge for the avenger and how it wears away at them. I had that in my head while we were filming. I love Camille (La Dame aux Camélias) by Alexandre Dumas fils and would like to do it as a play; there was a fantastic theatre adaptation by English playwright Pam Gems. My favourite film is Un sapore di ruggine e ossa (2012) [starring Marion Cotillard].
