Greg Wise

Greg Wise will always be Willoughby to me, that charming heartbreaker in Sense and Sensibility, and there's something irresistibly novelistic about the fact that he later married his co-star Emma Thompson. A Newcastle man educated in Edinburgh, he has worked across film, stage, television and production with a craftsman's quiet versatility rather than star-chasing flash. I respect actors who build both a steady working life and a steady home life, and the calm assurance he carries reads as hard-earned. He's the sort of performer who only deepens with age, and I expect his best, most weathered work is still ahead.
