Ioan Gruffudd

Joan Griffith is known to moviegoers in the image of Mr. Fantastic from "Fantastic Four". The Welshman is not among the first actors in Hollywood, but his filmography is full of curious roles in box office films.

Translated from Welsh Celtic Joan turns out to be similar to the name John. The man's surname actually reads like Gruffad, but in Russian language it has a different sound. Griffith is proud of his unusual name and background. He is a descendant of the Welsh, which distinguishes him from the galaxy of modern English actors.

The British artist was born on October 6, 1973 in the town of Aberder. His parents worked as teachers at a local school. Joan was their firstborn, so he had a younger brother and sister on his shoulders.

The family moved to Cardiff a short time later. The boy studied well and was interested in creativity from childhood. One of the hobbies was music. Joan has shown success in the oboe game and has even participated in prestigious specialized competitions in Wales.

As he got older, interest in acting was overshadowed by other prerogatives. At the age of 13, the future actor made his debut. The young man was invited to participate in a project called "People of the Valley." The first role opened a new world for Griffith, and he decided to devote himself to cinema. Joan enrolled at the Royal Academy of Drama. After completing his studies in 1995, the young man became a professional actor.

Education, reading, external attractiveness helped the novice artist to achieve the goals. During his university years, he did not receive interesting invitations, which is why he was very worried. After episodic filming in British soap operas, Griffith's career was curiously developed: he was invited to star in the TV picture "Poldark".

Joan's first major works were roles in Wilde and Titanic. Starring in an autobiographical film about a British writer, Griffith embodied on the screen the image of John Gray and won praise from critics. The audience noted the deep dramatic talent of the actor.

The aspiring artist attracted the attention of James Cameron, who offered the Welshman the role of officer Harold Lowe in the legendary Titanic. Popularity was not long in coming. The next project with the participation of the Briton was the film "Hornblower: Equal Chances". Joan Griffith portrayed Officer Horatio Hornblower in the frame and was given a contract for several years in advance.

The filmography of the performer was gradually replenished with works in TV series, including "Warriors" and "Great Expectations." Since 2000, Griffith has conquered American cinema. The first major role went to the artist in the film "102 Dalmatians". The tape was incredibly popular, and Joan Griffith became a star. Every year the tabloids reported on the release of several projects with his participation.

The actor's schedule was getting denser. He was torn between filming in the UK and the US. One by one, the filming of "The Forsyth Saga," "King Arthur" in collaboration with Keira Knightley and "Amazing Lightness", the role in which Griffith got thanks to an amazing baritone.

An interesting genre for the artist was fiction. The image of the hero of "Fantastic Four" was a new stage in his career. Blockbuster presented in different countries of the world. Fame and popularity brought the performer of the role of Mr. Fantastic huge fees. Two years later, Joan Griffith starred in the sequel to Fantastic Four: The Invasion of the Silver Surfer.

The artist then gave his voice to the characters of the CARTOON universe DC. The demand of the performer did not last long. Gradually, popularity began to decline, and films with his participation assigned a category "B." "Fireflies in the Garden," "Bush," "The Unbearable Bosses" enjoyed the interest of a small audience.

During this period, Griffith discovered the possibility of implementation on television. The artist's appearance, manners, accent and talent were appreciated by the producers, who needed the creators of images of positive heroes and villains. So Griffith became a member of the projects "Glee," "Castle," "Heavy Monday" and others.

In 2011, he embodied on the screen the main character in the series "Double." On set, the actor worked in a duet with Sarah Michelle Gellar. In 2014, Griffith became the star of The Eternity Project, playing American doctor Henry Morgan, who specializes in murder solving.

Ioan Griffith found happiness in his personal life after the filming of 102 Dalmatians. On the set, the artist met with actress Alice Evans. A romantic relationship began between the colleagues. For 7 years the lovers were not separated and in 2007 they had a wedding. The celebration took place in Mexico.

More than 10 years later, the feelings between the spouses did not subside. In 2018, 11 years later, Griffith confessed his love to his wife, posting a photo from the wedding on his Instagram account.

Despite the crazy popularity and millions of girls who are ready to make a couple of British artists, he remains faithful to his wife. In alliance with Alice Evans, Joan Griffith has two children. Now he is the caring father of daughters, Ella Betsy and Elsie Marigold. Today the family lives in Los Angeles.

Joan Griffith loves football and enjoys playing golf.

He is included in the list of famous Hollywood actors-friends thanks to his relationship with Jamie Bamber. After meeting on the set of Hornblower, the artists found a soul mate in each other and have been spending time together since. They even have an apartment purchased jointly.

The biography of the British actor is unthinkable without filming. He still appears on the screen, gives interviews and participates in photo shoots for the covers of glossy magazines. In 2018, Joan Griffith starred in Farhad Safinia's "Professor and Madman". The dramatic British-Irish film once again gave a chance to unleash the dramatic potential of the performer, and he took the opportunity.

In the spring of 2018, the Harrow project was launched on TV screens. Dr. Harrow in the incarnation of Joan Griffith - a talented pathologist, whose professional achievements are highly valued, so he is forgiven oddities.
