Honourable mentions: -
Christian Bale (born 1974) actor, attended the same school as me; Bournemouth School for Boys
Millie Bobby Brown (born 2004) actress, portrayed Eleven (Stranger Things) in Netflix series, Stranger Things
Millie Bobby Brown was born in Spain. Typical Andy trying to get credit by bending the rules.
shareHence the honourable mention; she just went to school here.
shareDon't live in a city but I grew up near the Port Talbot - Swansea - Neath triangle which can claim (in no particular order) Richard Burton, Anthony Hopkins, Michael Sheen, Catherine Zeta Jones, Ray Milland, Katherine Jenkins and a bunch of other favourites. I guess if I had to pick a favourite it would be Burton.
shareThat's quite a list.
shareBill Raisch
shareThat was a tough question.
The closest thing that I can come up with is that Ann-Margret's father came from my town.
Just did a quick DuckDuckGo search because I wasn’t born in a city and the only claim to fame I have is the actor Tim Pigott-Smith. 😛
shareIf you take out the "Rugby" and just keep it Warwickshire, you have Clive Owen.
shareI guess that does help somewhat 😂 thanks. Not to denounce Mr Pigott-Smith because he was a great actor, but some other posters here have much more interesting answers.
And as for Rugby- it’s hard enough trying to explain to people that I wasn’t actually born on a Rugby pitch.
probably vincent price - but john hamm is very popular and well regarded. also jon goodman.
my hometown - st louis, missouri usa
