Ross O'Hennessy

Actor · Born January 1, 1974 (52) · Pontllanfraith, Wales, UK

Ross O'Hennessy was born in Pontllanfraith, South Wales but always knew he wanted to be actor. So at the tender age of 16 he packed his bags and moved to London. He spent a few years treading the boards with the National Youth Theatre before winning the Sir John Mills Scholorship to attend Private Drama School. After finishing a 3 years diploma course at The Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts, Ross launched straight into a highly successful play with Lauren Bacall which in turn took him to the Royal Shakespeare Company. From Theatre to Film and television was a natural progression and he has worked successfully on screen and his career continues to grow from strength to strength.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
