Daring and charming, British actor Joseph Morgan is setting the bar high.

Extremely versatile, Morgan has flexed his acting muscles across the West End stage as well as bulking up to star in the fantasy epic “Immortals.” From his childhood days in Swansea to taking on the world, Morgan is an artist worth watching.
Challenging and monumental, Morgan’s breakthrough role came with the Emmy award-winning director Steve Shill’s miniseries “Ben Hur.” Cast in the titular role, Morgan earned rave reviews from critics and fans alike.
