Biography
Seen as Commander Norrington in the monster hit Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, The Libertine marks Jack Davenport’s re-teaming with Johnny Depp. He will reprise his role in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest.
The son of actors Maria Aitken and Nigel Davenport, Jack Davenport’s first break came after he wrote to John Cleese to ask to be a runner on Fierce Creatures and ended up being cast as a zoo keeper. He then landed the role of public school barrister Miles in the cult television series This Life. Other major television starring roles include the award-winning ensemble relationship comedy Coupling.
A successful stage actor and a regular performer in radio drama, he impressed international audiences with his role as Peter Smith-Kingsley in Anthony Minghella’s The Talented Mr. Ripley opposite Matt Damon, Jude Law and Gwyneth Paltrow. He also starred with Debra Messing and Dermot Mulroney in The Wedding Date.
