known for
• is often witty and amiable in interviews and public appearances.
• has a rabid fanbase that was the subject of a 2009 documentary.
• following his admittedly poor performances in twilight, has focused mainly on independent films and stage work with supporting roles in some larger productions.
• is frequently drawn toward stylized films and dark comedies.
professional tidbits
• was a runway and print model before and as he started acting.
• attended rada for one term and took two off before officially withdrawing.
• was frequently used as an example of white male privilege for how the media continued to adore him despite his "unprofessionalism" (in the form of his barely masked disdain for twilight) during his time promoting the series.
• openly spoke about quitting acting after his twilight contract was completed but decided to continue, partly so that he could appear in anna karenina with friend bea fitzallan.
• always wanted to be a musician and plays multiple instruments (none with technical proficiency).
• serves as a "muse" for tom ford, who has cast harry in both of his films.
• became a member of the academy in 2017.
significant relationships
• has an affectionate relationship with his mother, julia, a theatre director (based on marianne elliott), and an ambivalent relationship with his father, richard, an actor (based on jeremy irons). the latter stems from harry’s complicated feelings about being compared to his father and richard’s infidelities.
• is the youngest of three: his eldest sister, emma (37), is a producer at big talk productions; his second sister, catherine, is an actress (35, based on andrea riseborough).
• has worked with all of his family members except his father: his mother directed him in war horse, catherine also appeared in nocturnal animals (although they did not share screen time), and emma was a producer on baby driver.
• infamously dated kristen stewart, breaking up after she was photographed cheating on him with a married director. it was not public knowledge that the couple was engaged at the time.
• has not dated publicly since kristen, although he has been since linked to jessica brown findlay, natalie dormer, holliday grainger, daisy lowe, and laura marling, among others.
• left l.a. and lived in london with actor matt smith following his break-up with kristen.
• is close friends with matt smith, daniel radcliffe, ben barnes, holliday grainger, richard madden, jenna coleman, emilia clarke, gemma chan, sam reid, and the treadaways.
