Charlie Hunnam mini-bio:

Charles Matthew "Charlie" Hunnam is an English actor.Hunnam's first major role was as Nathan Maloney in the Channel 4 drama Queer as Folk (1999). Immediately following his role in Queer as folk came the role as the young anarchist Daz in the British film Whatever Happened to Harold Smith? (1999) – on the completion of both projects Hunnam relocated to Los Angeles, California to pursue his acting career.

His career then expanded to include a recurring role as Gregor Ryder in a TV Series for The WB Network called Young Americans (2000). He then appeared in the much loved yet short lived FOX series Undeclared (2002) as the cocky British drama student Lloyd Haythe. The series was cancelled after only one season – many believe that this is because of the network continually changing the time slot for the show.

Following Undeclared, Hunnam then appeared in a selection of films: Abandon (2002) and the film adaptations of Nicholas Nickleby (2002) and Cold Mountain (2003). A personal decision to concentrate on films he wholeheartedly believed in resulted in his return to the United Kingdom to take the lead as Pete Dunham in Green Street (also known as Green Street Hooligans, Hooligans and The Yank) (2005). His most recent role was Patric – a member of the "The Fishes" – in Children of Men (2006) directed by Alfonso Cuarón. It is a film adaptation of the P.D. James novel of the same title.

Divides his time between Los Angeles and London.

Very good friends with Jamie Bell, Anne Hathaway and Romola Garai. All formed a strong bond while filming Nicholas Nickleby.

Was going to play the "stoner" in the small independent film Anderson's Cross (2007) alongside former "Undeclared" (2001) co star Samm Levine and good friend Jerome E. Scott, but couldn't because of scheduling conflicts. Director Jerome cut the part out of the script completely saying "No one replaces Charlie Hunnam".
