Dominic West (born October 15, 1969) is an English actor.

Early life

West was born in Sheffield, Yorkshire, England to George West, who owned a plastics manufacturing plant, and Moya, a homemaker. Dominic attended Trinity College, Dublin as well as Eton College and the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.

Career

West made his debut in 1991 in a short called 3 Joes. His other screen appearances include True Blue, Chicago and "Mona Lisa Smile". His most notable role has been Jimmy McNulty on the American television police drama The Wire. Using an American accent as Jimmy McNulty, in one amusing scene, he used his natural English accent, but was told it was "too fake".

In film, he portrayed the heavy-metal guitarist Kirk Cuddy in the 2001 film Rock Star. In 2007, he played the Spartan policitican Theron in 300.

On stage, he appeared in the Peter Hall-directed The Cherry Orchard (1996) at the Old Vic. In 2005, he returned to the stage to play Orlando in David Lan's As You Like It at the Wyndhams's Theatre in London. He played in Harley Granville Barker's The Voysey Inheritance directed by Peter Gill at the Royal National Theatre in 2006. In late 2006 and early 2007 he played the lead in Tom Stoppard's Rock 'n' Roll in London's West End.
