Biography

Tim Roth is an English actor whose career began with television work in the early 1980s, when he drew notice in Made in Britain and Meantime, both from 1983. His first theatrical film, The Hit (1984), brought him a BAFTA nomination for Most Promising Newcomer, and roles in Vincent & Theo and Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead, both 1990, raised his profile further. He became an international star through repeated work with Quentin Tarantino, among it Reservoir Dogs (1992), Pulp Fiction (1994), Four Rooms (1995) and The Hateful Eight (2015). Playing Archibald Cunningham in Rob Roy (1995) won him the BAFTA for Best Actor in a Supporting Role plus Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations. Later credits include The Legend of 1900 (1998), Planet of the Apes (2001), The Incredible Hulk (2008), Luce (2019) and Bergman Island (2021). He directed The War Zone (1999) and led the series Lie to Me and Tin Star.
