Шаблон:Distinguish Шаблон:Pp-pc1 Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox person Aidan Turner (born 19 June 1983)[1][2] is an Irish actor. He began his career in the RTÉ medical drama The Clinic (2008–2009),[3] and the BBC series Desperate Romantics (2009)[4] and later gained attention for starring in Being Human (2009–2011).[5][6] He starred as the titular character in the BBC adaptation of Winston Graham's Poldark (2015–2019). He also starred as Kíli in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy (2012–2014).[7][8]
Early life
Turner was born at home in Clondalkin, a suburban town of Dublin. The family moved later to Walkinstown.[9] Turner attended secondary school at St Mac Dara's Community College in Templeogue before leaving to join his older brother at Firhouse Community College. Turner has stated: "I probably wasn't a great student. I had a car when I was 17, so I used to just run out of school when I could, jump in the car and go play pool in Tallaght. I don't know how I knew, but I convinced myself that my [final exam] results were never going to matter to me."[10]
Before becoming an actor, Turner was a successful ballroom dancer, once obtaining third place in the adult section of the Irish National Championships.[9] After finishing secondary school, he briefly worked as an apprentice electrician, alongside his father. After he saw a notice up in Dublin's Gaiety School of Acting, and having become interested in acting while working in a cinema, he applied.[11][12][13] He graduated from the Gaiety School of Acting in 2004.[11]
Career
After graduating, Turner appeared in several theatre plays, including The Plough and the Stars, Romeo and Juliet, and A Cry from Heaven.[11][14][15]
Turner's television acting career began in 2007 with an uncredited appearance on the first episode of The Tudors.[16] In the same year he produced and starred in the film Porcelain, directed by Gavin Cleland, which was shot in a convent in Dublin. However only a trailer of the movie was ever released.[17] Between 2008 and 2009, he appeared in a recurring role on The Clinic.[18] Appearing in 18 episodes as Ruairí McGowan, he followed The Clinic with a BBC production, Desperate Romantics.[16] He portrayed Dante Gabriel Rossetti in all six episodes of the show, which aired in 2009.[16][19][20] Turner played the vampire John Mitchell on the supernatural drama programme Being Human during the first three series from 2009 to 2011, for which he received widespread praise.[21][22][23]
His film career began with two short films, The Sound of People and Matterhorn, both in 2007. He later played Mal in the thriller feature film Alarm (2008).[24][25]
His role on Being Human brought Turner to the attention of Sir Peter Jackson, who cast him as the dwarf Kíli in The Hobbit trilogy (2012–2014).[11] In 2014, he won the Empire Award for Best Male Newcomer for the second film in the series, The Desolation of Smaug, which had been released the previous year.[13] In 2013, he also played shadowhunter-turned-werewolf Luke Garroway in The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones.[16]
In the 2015 BBC TV miniseries And Then There Were None, based on the Agatha Christie novel, he plays the cynical mercenary Philip Lombard.[26]
Turner performed the title role of Ross Poldark in the 2015 revival of the BBC series.[11][27][28] At the National Television Awards ceremony in 2016, Turner was presented with the "Impact Award" for his performance in Poldark.[29]
Since Poldark ended in 2019, Turner has led the Italian series Leonardo and also had a role in the ITV police procedural The Suspect as Dr Joseph O'Loughlin.
Personal life
In 2017, Turner met actress Caitlin FitzGerald. He also bought an 18th-century house in East London that year.[30][31] The couple married in August 2020,[32] and FitzGerald gave birth to their child in January 2022.[33]
