Actor Profile; Matthew Rhys

NAME: Matthew Rhys Evans
BIRTHDATE: November 8, 1974, Wales, UK
ABDUCTION CLUB CHARACTER: James Strang


Matthew and Ioan



The first time I ever saw Matthew Rhys in a film was The Abduction Club, but I had previously heard of him as an actor and that was only because he is Ioan Gruffudd's (Fantastic Four, Amazing Grace, King Arthur) best friend, whom he lived with for almost 10 years. Matthew was also one of Ioan's best men at his wedding to Alice Evans, yes the stunning actress who played Catharine in The Abduction Club.

Matthew's first language is Welsh and he was educated at Ysgol Gynradd Gymraeg Melin Gruffydd, Whitchurch, Cardiff. His full name is Matthew Rhys Evans although he is known professionally only by his first and second names (Matthew Rhys).

Matthew is know for his work in films such as The Edge of Love, and is particularly well-known for his role in the TV series Brothers & Sisters.

Have you seen Matthew in anything other than The Abduction Club?
