A charming British actor who had his breakout role in Prince Caspian. Born August 20, 1981, he was a part of the National Youth Music Theatre from 1997-2003. He briefly entertained a pop career with the boy
band Hyrise in Eurovision, but it only lasted one performance. Along with singing and acting, Ben can
play the drums and
piano.
His other acting credits include Stardust, playing Young Dustan, Bigga Than Ben, playing Cobakka, Split decision, playing Chris Wilbur, and Doctors, guest starring as
Craig Unwin.
His upcoming roles are in Easy Virtue, with Colin Firth, Kristin Scott Thomas, and Jessica Biel, and the title role in Dorian
Gray.
He's also extremely gorgeous.
Ben Barnes said that he based his Prince Caspian accent on that of Inigo Montoya from 'The Princess Bride' because the
night before auditions, he was sorting through his
DVD collection trying to find something to
help him.
