Oscar® winner JIM BROADBENT joins the “Indiana Jones” cast as Dean Charles Stanforth.
A quintessential British character actor, Broadbent starred in a trio of films in 2001 that launched him onto the global stage. First, he starred as Bridget Jones’s father in “Bridget Jones’s Diary.” He also won a BAFTA for Best Supporting Actor for his performance as Harold Zidler in the Oscar®-nominated musical sensation “Moulin Rouge.” The third film was the biographical drama “Iris,” about the British novelist Iris Murdoch (played by Dame Judi Dench) who suffered from Alzheimer’s disease. Broadbent won an Oscar® and a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor for his part as Murdoch’s devoted husband John Bayley.
Broadbent’s most recent films include Edgar Wright’s action comedy “Hot Fuzz” (2007), opposite Simon Pegg and Bill Nighy. He has also starred as W.S. Gilbert in Mike Leigh’s “Topsy-Turvy” (1999). Before that, he lit up the screen with performances in Richard Loncraine’s “Richard III” (1995), Woody Allen’s “Bullets Over Broadway” (1994), Mike Newell’s “Enchanted April” (1992), and Neil Jordan’s “The Crying Game” (1992).
Broadbent began studying art before pursuing his career as an actor and applying to the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. He performed on stage with the Royal National Theatre and The Royal Shakespeare Company. He worked steadily on stage and in television and made his film debut in 1978 in Jerzy Skolimowski’s “The Shout.”
Broadbent will next be seen opposite Colin Firth in “And When Did You Last See Your Father?” He will also make his debut in the Harry Potter series as Horace Slughorn in “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince,” and appear in Iain Softley’s fantasy adventure “Inkheart.”
SHIA LaBEOUF stars for the first time in an “Indiana Jones” film as Mutt Williams.
LaBeouf recently took international audiences by storm when he starred in D.J. Caruso’s popular thriller “Disturbia” and again as Sam Witwicky in Michael Bay’s blockbuster “TRANSFORMERS” executive-produced by Steven Spielberg. He also lent his voice to the character of a young penguin, Cody Maverick, in the Oscar® nominated animated film “Surf’s Up” alongside Jeff Bridges, James Woods and Zooey Deschanel.
Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, LaBeouf began acting as a way to entertain his mother and father at the tender age of three. He later attended the Magnet School of Performing Arts at USC before beginning his career as an actor by hiring an agent at the age of 11.
LaBeouf made his debut in the TV film “Breakfast with Einstein” (1998) before being cast in the award-winning Disney series “Even Stevens.” Over the next four years, LaBeouf’s performance in the popular series earned him a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Performer in a Daytime TV Series (2003) and a nomination for the Young Artist Awards Leading Young Actor in a Comedy TV Series three years running (2000-2002).
In 2003, LaBeouf made his feature film debut opposite Sigourney Weaver and Jon Voight in the comedy “Holes,” based on the best-selling book by Louis Sacher. For this performance, LaBeouf was nominated for the Young Artists Award in 2004 for Leading Young Actor in a Feature Film and the Breakthrough Male Performance at the MTV Movie Awards. That same year, he was cast as Bosley’s protégé in “Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle” and starred in HBO’s “Project Greenlight” feature “The Battle of Shaker Heights” produced by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.
Since his early work as a young actor, he has begun to take on more challenging roles, like that of the young Robert Downey Jr., in “A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints” (2006), which won Best Ensemble Cast at the Sundance Film Festival, and as part of the ensemble in Emilio Estevez’s acclaimed drama “Bobby” (2006).
In 2005, LaBeouf played amateur golfer Francis Ouimet in “The Greatest Game Ever Played” (2005) directed by Bill Paxton and based on Mark Frost’s best-selling book. He starred alongside Will Smith in “I, Robot” in 2004, followed by a supporting role the same year in “Constantine,” the sci-fi thriller based on the comic book Hellblazer, opposite Keanu Reeves.
On the heels of his performances in “Disturbia” and “TRANSFORMERS,” LaBeouf was given the 2007 ShoWest Award for Male Star of Tomorrow and nominated for four Teen Choice Awards for “TRANSFORMERS,” winning the Breakout Male Award. He also won the Teen Choice Award for Movie Actor in a Horror/Thriller for his performance in “Disturbia,” and also won a Scream Award.
LaBeouf will again team up with his “Disturbia” director D.J. Caruso for his next role in the DreamWorks action thriller “Eagle Eye.”
