Of Italian origin and Scottish birth, Tom Conti has moved with ease among theater, film and television on both sides of the Atlantic. His talent on the stage earned him a Tony Award and a Laurence Olivier, while on the big screen he obtained a nomination for the Academy Award for 'Reuben, Reuben'. An affable face of Mediterranean charm, he has built a long and versatile career with titles such as 'Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence' alongside David Bowie or, more recently, appearances in blockbusters such as 'Oppenheimer'. His register combines warmth and melancholic humor with an acting elegance that makes him equally convincing in drama and in comedy.
