It was Paul Bettany's supporting role in the film, A Beautiful Mind, which first caught the attention of the American press. Born into a theatrical family, the British actor left school at age 16 and spent the next two years as a street performer. He turned to drama school and, after graduation, performed on the British stage, in films and TV. Since his star-making turn in Master and Commander, Bettany has starred in Wimbledon, Dogville and, the year's most highly anticipated movie, The Da Vinci Code.
