"The whole point of being an actor is to get satisfaction out of a role - unless you're just vain about celebrity." ~ Jonny Lee Miller
Jonny Lee Miller (born November 15, 1972) has recently re-entered the public conscious as the lead actor in the now canceled ABC drama "Eli Stone".
Known for his starring role in the movie "Trainspotting" and the short-lived CBS series "Smith", Miller's forgotten claim to fame was that he was the husband of Angelina Jolie for three years, having met her on the set of "Hackers" in which they both starred.

Follow Eli Stone (Jonny Lee Miller) on his quirky quest for answers in this exciting and upbeat comedic drama.
When Eli awakens to an unending George Michael soundtrack that only he can hear, gets dive-bombed by a WWI biplane on a busy San Francisco street, and faces a fire-breathing dragon outside his office window, there are two possible explanations: delusions caused by a potentially fatal brain aneurysm or the chance that something greater is at work. He might just be a prophet sent to change the world.
Victor Garber and Loretta Devine lead an acclaimed supporting cast in this wonderfully wacky new series, Eli Stone: The Complete First Season. Complete with exclusive bloopers and behind-the-scenes footage, this 4-disc box set will surprise, inspire and leave you feeling like you gotta have faith.
Jonny Lee Miller Quotes
"I never try to completely do a character, if you know what I mean. I always feel like I'm just being me, but in the character's situation."
"I really wouldn't want to live in America. I found New York claustrophobic and dirty. I missed England when I was there, simple things like smells and the British sense of humor."

Jonny Lee Miller as The Flying Scotsman
Jonny Lee Miller is Graeme Obree
Silver-screen sports stories rarely revolve around the big and brawny, but the small and scrappy, like Sean Astin in Rudy or Toby Maguire in Seabiscuit. For Scottish cycling sensation Graeme Obree (Trainspotting's Jonny Lee Miller), the biggest obstacle isn't physical, but financial--and psychological.
From 1993 to 1995, when most of The Flying Scotsman takes place, he's a bike-shop owner and courier who dreams of turning pro (Laura Fraser plays his supportive spouse). After Rev. Baxter (Brian Cox returning to his native Scotland) sets him up with supplies, and fellow courier Malky (The Lord of the Rings' Billy Boyd) agrees to manage him, Obree sets out to break the one-hour world record. He starts by building a bicycle from spare parts, a move that recalls Anthony Hopkins' eccentric racer in The World's Fastest Indian.
Obree's money woes are further complicated by a battle with manic depression, which is handled sensitively. Though he'll break several records before the film is over, the World Cycling Federation (represented by former James Bond villain Steven Berkoff) makes him jump through several demeaning hoops to get there.
As for Miller, he's convincing as a cyclist (Obree serves as one of his stand-ins), though Boyd provides the bulk of the charisma. Nonetheless, the real-life champ deserves recognition for his achievements, and Mackinnon's movie is as a sympathetic testament to a true talent.

I never thought of Jonny Lee Miller as an actor - just as Jolie's ex. But I LOVE him in Eli Stone. He's got this quirkly quality about him that's fun to watch - and he's adorable! Nice lens. 5 stars.
