Eddie Redmayne is a man who possesses charisma, charm and undeniable talent. His role as Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything helped to solidify his place as a top contender in the industry. After last night’s Oscars award ceremony, Redmayne walked away with his first Oscar and catapulted himself into the limelight as Hollywood’s new leading man. 

Redmayne grew up in London and started his career on broadway, where he was awarded a Tony for his role in the play Red. From there, his career continued to blossom as he was soon cast in major films such as My Week With Marilyn and Les Misérables and later cast in The Theory of Everything with Oscar nominated actress, Felicity Jones. With an Oscar win under his belt, Redmayne will surely be the toast of the town as his career continues to unfold.
