The Resume

    (November 10, 1989- )
    Born in Birkenhead, England, United Kingdom
    Portrayed Dennis ‘Asbo’ Severs in the TV series ‘The Smoke’ (2014) and Gary ‘Eggsy’ Unwin in ‘Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014) and its sequels

Why he might be annoying:

    His first name should be ‘Taran,’ Welsh for ‘thunder,’ but his mother misspelled it.
    He said he was ‘a bit of a class clown.’
    He noted about injuries suffered on the ‘Kingsman’ films, ‘I got my hand slammed in a car door. Ed [Holcroft] punched me in the face. I think I got kicked in the balls one day as well.’
    He was in the running to play the young Han Solo but was passed over because the Star Wars producers felt he was committed to too many projects to give the role the time and attention they wanted.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He won the Stephen Sondheim Society’s award for Student Performer of the Year (2011).
    His acting idols include Daniel Day-Lewis, Michael Sheen and Sean Penn: ‘[They] have this wonderful kind of charisma and energy that carries from one role to another.’
    He was twice named t GQ’s list of the 50 best dressed British men (2015-16).
    Variety declared that his ‘jawline is so sharp you could practically chop wood with it.’
    He said, ‘I don't want to look back at my career and see a string of incredibly commercial projects that don't have much heart. I'm looking for things that have soul."
