Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Ray Marcus

Aaron Taylor-Johnson was born in High Wycombe, England and attended the prestigious Jackie Palmer Stage School. Since he began performing at age nine, he has made a significant impression on audiences worldwide with memorable portrayals.

In Sam Taylor-Johnson’s Nowhere Boy, he starred as John Lennon in a story depicting the artist’s turbulent teenage years. Mr. Taylor-Johnson’s performance brought him a British Independent Film Award (BIFA) nomination for Best Actor; a London Critics’ Circle Film Award nomination; and the Empire Award for Best Newcomer.

The movie grossed over $1 billion in worldwide box office sales in 2015.

He starred as the title character, Dave Lizewski, in the cult hit Kick-Ass. Matthew Vaughn’s movie version of the Mark Millar comic won Best British Film at the Empire Awards, where Mr. Taylor-Johnson was a Best Actor nominee. He reprised the role for Kick-Ass 2, directed by Jeff Wadlow.

He has appeared on several U.K. television series, including Feather Boy, Family Business, Nearly Famous, and Talk to Me.
