Who is Hugh Dancy

Ranked #3,829 in Entertainment, #42,242 overall

English Actor: Hugh Dancy

English actor Hugh Dancy became one of my favorites when he took on the role of Luke Brandon in the movie adaptation of Confessions of a Shopaholic, based on the novel by Sophie Kinsella.

Having previously starred in the English theater and more minor movie roles, this film brought him instant fame and immediate international recognition.

Following Confessions, Dancy went on to appear in the award-winning film Adam, in which he played a young man with Asperger's, a role for which he was nominated as Best Actor at the Satellite Awards.

Whether comedy or drama, this young actor is able to adapt to both worlds, and therefore I celebrate the career of Hugh Dancy and hope you enjoy finding out more about him.
