Dominic West

Observing the creative biography and the fate of the actor is a separate pleasure. Someone, becoming rivals because of unsuccessful samples in one film, put up on the set of another (for example, Georgy Yumatov and Vasily Lanovoy). Someone (Nonna Mordyukova) all his life cannot forgive an insult for the role of a beautiful Cossack woman to his colleague and sees in her enemy number 1 (Elina Bystritskaya). And someone gets a prestigious television award for playing a serial killer with the same name - like Dominic West.

In the very middle of October 1969, in Sheffield, the sixth child, Dominic Gerard Francis Eagleton, was born into a large Catholic family of actress Pauline Mary and her husband, the successful owner of a plastic factory Thomas George. After him, another baby was born, as a result, the happy parents had seven children - five girls and two boys. However, this did not prevent the parents from divorcing in 1996.

The maternal grandparents are Irish by origin, the British and also the Irish by the father. An interesting fact: Dominic is a cousin of the former US Senator Thomas Eagleton. West spent his childhood in a detached stone house located by the swamp. When the boy was 9 years old, he asked his mother to take him to a local amateur theater studio.

At Eton College, at first things did not go very smoothly, but later the teenager got a role in Shakespeare's Hamlet. Then the guy suddenly decided to feel "different" and went to Argentina, where he spent a little less than half a year as a cattle breeder. It paid off.

По возвращении он попал в дублинский Trinity College (здесь когда-то учились и Оскар Уайльд, и Джонатан Свифт), сыграл первую роль в короткометражной ленте «Три Джо» и окончил учебное заведение со степенью бакалавра по литературе. Дебют в кинематографе настолько вдохновил парня, что тот решил поступить в школу музыки и драмы.

Что касается воспоминаний ранних лет, то Доминик заявлял: он искренне жалеет, что не нашел время, чтобы присоединиться к бойскаутам. В молодости его единственный брат получал знания у монахов в Йоркшире, а позднее познакомил и Доминика с тонким искусством каллиграфии.

West made his big-screen debut in the feature-length Richard III, based on a play by William Shakespeare in 1995. The next year he reincarnated as the genius Pablo Picasso, and then again appeared in films based on the works of the great classics - "The Gambler" by Dostoevsky and "A Midsummer Night's Dream" by the same Shakespeare.

Further, the actor's filmography was replenished with both Star Wars and Rock Star, where he played the guitarist Steel Dragon !, and the Oscar-winning Chicago, which brought the first award, and Mona Lisa Smile with Julia Roberts.

Subsequent historical paintings gave the main roles and strengthened the love of the public: "300 Spartans" (Feron) and "Centurion" (Titus Flavius ​​Viril). The performer did not have to complain about his characters either. He was lucky to be transformed into Ernest Hemingway, Oliver Cromwell, Henri Gaultier-Villard.

Dominic is not averse to pampering young viewers, willingly taking on the dubbing of cartoons. His voice is spoken by Rudder in Finding Dory and an elf in Santa's Secret Service. However, the TV series "The Wire" and "Lovers" with Ruth Wilson (in which he is still acting) brought the greatest popularity to the British. Once in an interview, the performer admitted:

Despite his active cinematic activity, the actor does not forget about the theater, performing on the stage of the Royal National Theater, Donmar Warehouse, Crucible Theater and others.

When Dominic was 28 years old, he had his first daughter Martha from his beloved Polly Astor, an aristocrat and daughter of a politician. However, this was not the reason for the official registration of the marriage. By his own admission, he understood that he was acting ugly with his girlfriend, but he was not ready to give up a successful career in cinema. When the child was 3 years old, the couple broke up completely.

With the only official wife - producer Catherine Fitzgerald - Dominic met at the university, but the chosen one left him and married another.

In Fitzgerald's personal life, everything soon went awry, and after her divorce, the man began to take active steps to bring her back. Persistent success accompanies success: at the end of June 2010, Catherine married Dominic. The happy couple are raising four children - Dora, Senan, Francis and Christabel.

Уэст однажды поделился с журналистами, что ему трудно было придерживаться католицизма из-за их строгих многочисленных правил, касающихся секса. Но сейчас, когда он многодетный отец, он бы желал, чтобы они придерживались канонов религии в этом вопросе, а также семейных традиций и ценностей. Поэтому посещение церкви по выходным – дело обязательное.

Свободное время и деньги у актера уходят на совершенно бесполезные вещи с eBay. Его уважением, вопреки моде, пользуются Принцесса Анна и Клаус Кински, икона стиля – Сильвестр Сталлоне, а худшие злодеи – те, кто рушит и уничтожает памятники архитектуры. Также он занимается благотворительностью.

2018 turned out to be fruitful for the artist. On January 20, the world premiere of the drama "Colette" took place, starring Keira Knightley and Dominic West. Later on the screens came out the tape "Tomb Raider: Lara Croft", where the father of the "Tomb Raider" was played by Dominic.

On December 30 of the same year, the first episode of the mini-series Les Miserables was presented to the audience, where West appeared in the form of Jean Valjean. Subsequent episodes were released in 2019.

The fit Briton (height 183 cm with a weight of about 88 kg) is far from social networks, but nothing will stop loyal fans who actively create fan pages and share with each other photos and news from the life of the idol.
