Ewan Gordon McGregor was born on March 31, 1971 in Perth, Perthshire, Scotland, to Carol Diane (Lawson) and James Charles McGregor, both teachers. His uncle is actor Denis Lawson. He was raised in Crieff. At age 16, he left Morrison Academy to join the Perth Repertory Theatre. His parents encouraged him to leave school and pursue his acting goals rather than be unhappy. McGregor studied drama for a year at Kirkcaldly in Fife, then enrolled at London's Guildhall School of Music and Drama for a three-year course. He studied alongside Daniel Craig and Alistair McGowan, among others, and left right before graduating after snagging the role of Private Mick Hopper in Dennis Potter's six-part Channel 4 series Lipstick on Your Collar (1993). His first notable role was that of Alex Law in Shallow Grave (1994), directed by Danny Boyle, written by John Hodge and produced by Andrew Macdonald. This was followed by The Pillow Book (1995) and Trainspotting (1996), the latter of which brought him to the public's attention.
He is now one of the most critically acclaimed actors of his generation, and portrays Obi-Wan Kenobi in the first three Star Wars episodes. McGregor is married to French production designer Eve Mavrakis, whom he met while working on the television series Kavanagh QC (1995). They married in France in the summer of 1995, and have four daughters. McGregor formed a production company, with friends Jonny Lee Miller, Sean Pertwee, Jude Law, Sadie Frost, Damon Bryant, Bradley Adams and Geoff Deehan, called "Natural Nylon", and hoped it would make innovative films that do not conform to Hollywood standards. McGregor and Bryant left the company in 2002. He was awarded Officer of the Order of the British Empire in the 2013 Queen's New Years Honours List for his services to drama and charity.
Ewan made his directorial debut with American Pastoral (2016), an adaptation of Philip Roth's book, in which Ewan also starred.

Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, Ewen Bremner has worked with many of the most respected directors in world cinema, including Danny Boyle, Mike Leigh, Ridley Scott, Joon-Ho Bong, Werner Herzog and Woody Allen. Ewen has established himself by creating unique characters in critically acclaimed films, as well as going toe to toe with many of Hollywood's biggest stars.
Bremner had worked widely in theatre, television, and film for years before being cast in his breakout role in Trainspotting (1996), by Oscar-winning director Danny Boyle. Having originated the role of Mark Renton in Edinburgh's Traverse Theatre production, Bremner then made waves opposite Ewan McGregor playing Spud Murphy and earned screen immortality with his character's infamous "speed fueled" job interview scene.
Prior to Trainspotting, Bremner gave a striking performance in Mike Leigh's Naked, starring opposite David Thewlis. In 1999, Bremner received critical acclaim for his portrayal of a schizophrenic man living with his dysfunctional family in Harmony Korine's Julien Donkey-Boy. Filmed strictly in accordance with the ultra-realist tenants of Lars Von Trier's Dogma 95 movement and starring opposite Werner Herzog, Bremner played Julien its eponymous hero, requiring him to assume an American accent. He then worked with director Michael Bay in his high-profile 2001 war film Pearl Harbor (2001), proving his versatility once again by portraying the role of a wholeheartedly patriotic American soldier fighting in WWII. The following year, he stepped back into fatigues for a supporting role in Ridley Scott's Black Hawk Down (2001), while rounding out the next several years with roles in high-profile Hollywood releases such as The Rundown (2003), Disney's Around the World in 80 Days (2004), Alien vs. Predator (2004) Woody Allen's Match Point (2005), the comedy Death at a Funeral (2007) directed by Frank Oz, and Fool's Gold (2005) starring Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson.
This past year proved to be a busy one when Bremner was invited to join the DC Universe in the Zack Snyder-produced feature Wonder Woman, directed by Patty Jenkins, co-starring Gal Gadot and Chris Pine, and set for release by Warner Bros. in the summer of 2017. Ewen would also reprise his unforgettable role as "Spud" in the highly-anticipated sequel to Danny Boyle's cult classic, T2: Trainspotting, for Sony due out early 2017. He rounded out the year with the feature The Lake, produced by Luc Besson.
Currently (2017), Bremner is filming the TNT Drama Series Will with Shekhar Kapur, produced by Craig Pearce, whose writing credits include the feature films The Great Gatsby, Moulin Rouge, Romeo + Juliet and Strictly Ballroom. The series will tell the story of the lost years of young William Shakespeare after his arrival to London in 1589.
Other notable film credits include Woody Allen's You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger, David Mackenzie's Perfect Sense starring again alongside Ewan McGregor, Great Expectations directed by Mike Newell, Bryan Singer's Jack the Giant Slayer, and Snowpiercer directed by Bong Joon-Ho and starring opposite Chris Evans and Tilda Swinton. Further credits include Exodus: Gods and Kings, Wide Open Spaces, Mojo, Mediator, Faintheart, Hallam Foe, Sixteen Years of Alcohol, and Snatch.
In television, Ewen has worked on many acclaimed productions including David Hare's Worriker trilogy starring Bill Nighy for BBC, Jimmy McGovern's Moving On and also his Australian mini-series Banished, Strike Back for Sky TV, Dominic Savage's Dive, the Dylan Thomas biopic, A Poet In New York and the adaptation of Day of the Triffids for the BBC. Other noteworthy series appearances include portraying legendary surrealist Salvador Dali in the U.K. television drama Surrealissimo: The Trial of Salvador Dali, and a guest spot on the successful NBC series, My Name is Earl.

The younger brother of Joel, Ethan Coen is an Academy Award and Golden Globe winning writer, producer and director coming from small independent films to big profile Hollywood films. He was born on September 21, 1957 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. In some films of the brothers- Ethan & Joel wrote, Joel directed and Ethan produced - with both editing under the name of Roderick Jaynes; but in 2004 they started to share the three main duties plus editing. Each film bring its own quality, creativity, art and with one project more daring the other.
His film debut was in 1984 dark humored thriller Blood Simple (1984) starring Frances McDormand (Joel's wife) and M. Emmet Walsh in a deep story revolving a couple of romantic lovers followed by an insisting private eye. The film received critical acclaim, some award nominations to Ethan (best writing at the Film Independent Spirit Awards) and became a cult following over the years. Their second work was the comedy Raising Arizona (1987) starring Nicolas Cage and Holly Hunter as a unusual couple trying to create their family by kidnapping babies from a rich family.
Miller's Crossing (1990) was the third film of the brothers, a mob drama with heavy influences from several criminal dramas and with a stellar cast that included Gabriel Byrne, Marcia Gay Harden, Albert Finney, Steve Buscemi, John Turturro and Jon Polito (the latter three would become regular actors in the Coen's films).
Their views on the Hollywood era of the 1930's was the central theme is the great Barton Fink (1991), created from a writers block both brothers suffered during the making of their previous film. John Turturro stars as a writer who suffers from a breakdown when he's commissioned to a big budget Hollywood project. The film was a breakthrough for the Coens marking their first win at the Cannes Film Festival (Joel got the Palme d'Or) and the first time a film of their received Oscar nominations. The underrated comedy The Hudsucker Proxy (1994) was what followed; but no one could predict their next big and boldest move that would definitely put Ethan and Joel on the spotlight once and for all.
The comedy of errors Fargo (1996) was a huge critical and commercial success. With its crazed story of a man who hires two loonies to kidnap his own wife and a pregnant policewoman tracking the leads to the crime, Ethan and Joel came at their greatest moment that couldn't be missed. The film received several awards during award season and the Coen's got their first Oscar in the Best Original Screenplay category. What came next was the underrated yet hilariously good The Big Lebowski (1998) starring Jeff Bridges, John Goodman, John Turturro and Steve Buscemi. Those masterpieces made their career in the late 1990's cementing the duo as one of the greatest writers and directors of their generation, if not, from all time.
The Odyssey retold for the 1930's in O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000); the intelligent noir The Man Who Wasn't There (2001); the comedy Intolerable Cruelty (2003) and a remake The Ladykillers (2004) marked their way into the early 2000's. Certaintly of period of minor hits and some downer moments.
The big return was with the highly acclaimed No Country for Old Men (2007), where the brothers swooped at the Oscars with three wins: Best Picture, Screenplay and Writing, an adaptation from the Cormac McCarthy's novel.
A Serious Man (2009), Burn After Reading (2008), True Grit (2010), Inside Llewyn Davis (2013), Hail, Caesar! (2016) and The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (2018) were the subsequent films, all well received by audiences or got awards recognition, mostly nominations.
A shift from tone and career move was writing with other writers and for another directors: for Angelina Jolie's Unbroken (2014), for Spielberg in Bridge of Spies (2015) and George Clooney in Suburbicon (2017).
As for personal life, Ethan has been married to Tricia Cooke since 1990. Tricia works as an assistant editor in several of the Coen brothers films.- Actor

Emilio Delgado was an actor and singer, best known for his 44 years in the role of "Luis" on Sesame Street from 1971-2015 and had the unofficial distinction of having played the same role on U.S. television longer than any other Mexican American actor. He was born in Calexico, California and spent his early childhood living across the border in Mexicali, Mexico in a large extended family.
He started working at an early age in Mexicali shining shoes and working in his uncle's bicycle repair shop. As a U.S. citizen, he crossed the border daily into the United States to attend elementary school in Calexico, California, where he first began performing in school plays and musicals. He graduated from Glendale High School in Los Angeles, where his interest and passion for theater and music increased. After graduation he received a scholarship to study acting in Hollywood with Russian actress Eugenie Leontovich. He continued his theater studies at Glendale College and CalArts (California Institute of the Arts) while also performing as a folk singer, guitarist and singing traditional Spanish boleros with Mexican trios.
In 1968 Emilio began working as a professional actor in the Emmy Award winning PBS series Cancion De La Raza (Song of The People) KCET-LA. In 1971, the producers of Sesame Street expanded their cast to include Latinos and cast Emilio as Luis. Landing the role of "Luis" was very meaningful to Emilio because it offered a positive portrayal of a Mexican American on television. He can claim the longest running part for a Mexican American actor in a continuing television series for his 44 years on Sesame Street.
In addition to Sesame Street, Emilio was cast by Joe Papp in 1972 to understudy Raul Julia in Two Gentlemen of Verona at the St. James Theatre on Broadway. Emilio starred in the lead role of Quixote Nuevo in four cities: CalShakes Berkeley, Hartford Stage, Huntington Theatre Boston & The Alley Theatre in Houston from June 13, 2018 to February 9, 2020; written by award winning playwright, Octavio Solis. Quixote Nuevo is a contemporary adaptation of the Cervantes classic, first premiering in 2018 at California Shakespeare Theater in Berkeley. Other theater credits include Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey, INTAR Theatre, Round House Theatre in Bethesda, MD, Manhattan Theatre Source and King Claudius in the Asolo Repertory Theatre production of Hamlet: Prince of Cuba.
He appeared in several television classics and was a recurring cast member on the Lou Grant Show and appeared in Hawaii 5-0, Quincy, Police Story and co-starred in I Will Fight No More Forever. More recent television and film appearances include The Get Down, House of Cards, A Case of You, Law & Order, Criminal Intent, Law & Order: SVU, The Michael J. Fox Show and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and many other television and film appearances. In voice over work, you can hear his voice in The Bravest Knight, Red Dead Redemption II and Audible.
Emilio enjoyed the pleasure of being an occasional guest singer with the world popular band Pink Martini at venues such as Carnegie Hall, The Hollywood Bowl and made other guest appearances with the band in Portland, Seattle, and Montreal. He recorded 'Sing', a duet with China Forbes on the Pink Martini album Splendor in the Grass.
Awards he has received include, The Impact Award 2000 from the National Hispanic Media Coalition, The HOLA Ilka Award in 2005 and in 2009 he and the cast of Sesame Street were present to receive the Daytime Emmy Lifetime Achievement Award for Sesame Street's 40 years on the air. October 15, 2019 he was honored by New York's Mayor Bill de Blasio proclaiming October 15, 2019 as Emilio Delgado Day in New York City, taking place at Gracie Mansion in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month.
He has contributed his time to organizations such as the United Farm Workers, Head Start, The 52nd Street Project and Project Sunshine.

He acted opposite Catherine Keener in the Amazon series Modern Love (2019) and in David Fincher's Mindhunter (2017) (Netflix). Memorable guest appearances include roles on 30 Rock (2006), The Americans (2013), The Blacklist (2013), all three Law and Order franchises, and CSI. Erik's gained 26 pounds for his critically praised performance in The Bronx Is Burning (2007) (2007), as legendary New York Yankee, Thurman Munson, opposite John Turturro and Daniel Sunjata.
Notable stage roles include his "Breathtaking" (Billboard) performance as gonzo rock journalist Lester Bangs in the solo-play "How To Be A Rock Critic" at Steppenwolf Theatre in Chicago and at The Public Theater in New York. Jensen co-wrote "How To Be A Rock Critic" and was directed by his wife and frequent collaborator Jessica Blank. Other stage appearances include Tracey Scott Wilson's "The Good Negro" at The Public Theater directed by Liesl Tommy, and the Pulitzer Prize winning production of Ayad Akhtar's "Disgraced" at Lincoln Center. Early theater appearances include plays by Terrence McNally (Manhattan Theater Club) and Arthur Kopit (MTC).
In addition to his work as a performer, Erik is a playwright and screenwriter. He was named by The New Yorker as "among the foremost practitioners of documentary theater in the U.S." With his wife Jessica Blank, he is author of the multi-award-winning, critically-acclaimed play, "The Exonerated", which ran Off-Broadway in New York City for nearly two years and starred Richard Dreyfuss, Susan Sarandon, Aidan Quinn, and Delroy Lindo. "The Exonerated" is considered by many to be a genre-defining play in the realm of "documentary theater." Based on interviews conducted with over 40 wrongly convicted death row inmates across the United States, "The Exonerated" won Lucille Lortel, Outer Critics Circle, Drama Desk, Ovation, Fringe First and Herald Angel Awards, and was nominated for the Hull-Warriner Award and the John Gassner Playwriting Award; it has also received awards from Amnesty International, the American Bar Association, the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, Death Penalty Focus, and Court TV, and was named Best Play of the Year by the New York Times. The screen adaptation of The Exonerated (2005) was directed by Bob Balaban. Jensen and Blank's book on the making of the "The Exonerated" titled "Living Justice" was published in 2005 by Simon and Schuster and received a Kirkus starred review.
On the heels of "The Exonerated" Jensen and Blank created the documentary play "Aftermath," a NY Times Critic's Pick, based on their interviews with Iraqi civilian refugees in Jordan, which ran Off-Broadway to sold out houses at New York Theater Workshop and toured Europe extensively. Their third play, "How To Be A Rock Critic" (based on the writing of Lester Bangs), received rave reviews from Rolling Stone, Billboard, Variety, The New Yorker, and from Bangs' contemporaries Greil Marcus and Jim Derogatis. It played sold out runs at the Kirk Douglas, South Coast Rep, ArtsEmerson, Steppenwolf, and The Public Theater with Jensen as Lester Bangs and wife Jessica Blank directing. As television writers, Jensen and Blank have collaborated with EPs including Tom Fontana (Oz (1997), City on a Hill (2019)), Ed Burns (The Wire (2002), Generation Kill (2008)), and David Simon. Jensen and Blank wrote and adapted the pilot "The Negotiator" for Gaumont TV and have developed for television with Fox TV Studios, 20th Century TV, Avenue Pictures, Sunswept Entertainment, Virgin Produced, and Radical Media.
Their documentary play, "Coal Country" (a New York Times Critics' Pick), about the 2010 Upper Big Branch Mine disaster, had a critically lauded World Premiere at The Public Theater, directed by Jessica Blank, with original music written and performed by three-time Grammy winning musician Steve Earle. The play is a recipient of the Edgerton Foundation New Play Award, and was nominated for the Drama Desk award for Outstanding Director (Jessica Blank) and Outstanding Music in a Play (Steve Earle). When the run was cut short by COVID-19, Jensen/Blank pivoted and wrote "The Line," a new play created and crafted from first-hand interviews with NYC medical first responders during the COVID-19 pandemic. Starring Santino Fontana, Arjun Gupta, John Ortiz, Alison Pill, Nicholas Pinnock, Jamey Sheridan, and Lorraine Toussaint, "The Line" streamed live on The Public Theater's YouTube Channel and was extended twice. Also a New York Times Critics' Pick, "The Line" garnered rave reviews from coast to coast: the New York Times calling it "harrowing," with the Los Angeles Times proclaiming "these words sting with truth, but it's the human spectrum before us that turns sociological observation into gasping emotion."
Erik's sci-fi graphic novel "The Reconcilers" (co-created with R. EmeryBright, and Pil Pilegaard) was published in 2010 to a rave from AintItCoollNews. An avid Dungeons and Dragons player, Jensen co-hosts the podcast "BardQuest Empire" with fellow actor and writer Fajer Al Kaisi.
Jensen and Blank adapted and co-directed the feature film Almost Home (2018) based on Blank's novel of the same title. It was released by Vertical Entertainment in 2019. Their second feature, How to be a Rock Critic (based on their play), is in development with Likely Story.

Eddy Challita always enjoyed movies, but it wasn't until he accompanied an actor friend to an audition in 2003 - and inadvertently landed a small role in the DreamWorks film Head of State with Chris Rock and Bernie Mac - that the possibility of a film career became a reality. Hailing from France, where he modeled and acted, Eddy also lived in Lebanon and France before moving to the U.S. over fourteen years ago. Other roles followed, including appearances in xXx: State of the Union with Ice Cube and Samuel L. Jackson, and the hit TV series The West Wing, with Martin Sheen and Rob Lowe. Most recently, he appeared in Salt, starring Angelina Jolie, and before that worked with one of his favorite actors, Leonardo DiCaprio, in Body of Lies. Eddy's ability to speak both French and Arabic, as well as English, has provided him with another cinematic opportunity: that of language coach. While he'd like to continue to pursue his acting career, he doesn't consider himself a "struggling" actor by any means. He teaches cyber security at the Defense Cyber Crime Institute, one of the top cyber defense academies, where top-notch government agents learn how to defend our country from spies and hackers. Eddy's expertise in the field comes from his many years as a government contractor, working as an analyst/linguist and dealing with cyber counter-intelligence. Despite his busy schedule, Eddy, who earlier this year, in addition to being featured on the Baltimore ABC News affiliate and in that city's Examiner, could be seen as part of the 2010 U.S. Census Bureau print campaign, has his sights set on Hollywood, New York City, and Europe, where he's confident that success awaits him.- Actress

The son of an artist and a dancer, Erik grew up surrounded by creative people in a New Jersey art colony. As a small child, he started making and acting in his own movies and convinced all his friends to join in. His most recent project is the web series "Wall Geek." Erik's character, Daniel, is a geeky quantitative analyst on Wall Street. The series was inspired by a job Erik had in a New York City investment bank after he graduated from MIT and UCLA with degrees in computer science.
Not surprisingly, Erik has played a lot of geeky roles. In theater, these have included a guy who's convinced he's a comic book action hero in "Superhero," a clueless and clumsy young apprentice in "Laughing Stock," a newly minted PhD whose job interview spins out of control in "Reverse Psychology," and Scrooge's nephew Fred in "A Christmas Carol." In film, he's been cast as a nerdy burglar in "The Golden Plate" and a baffled husband in "Valerie's Last Hug."
Erik's creative energy also extends to composing jazz music. Some of the songs from his most recent album "Affections" are featured on "Wall Geek."- Actress
