Biography

Clive Owen was born in Coventry on October 3rd 1964. He started acting at a young age performing in local theatre groups including an apparently memorable turn as the Artful Dodger in a production of Oliver!

His Sexiest Moments

1. Flirting with Natalie Portman at his wife's art exhibition in the movie Closer (2004). The strip club scene is also very sexy but it may be a little too explicit for some people

2. Wearing a tuxedo in the movie Croupier (1998) and looking like a perfect James Bond. Maybe next time.

3. As the lovable rouge Chancer in the 1990's television series of the same name.

Three Things You Never Knew

1. Clive's very first screen appearance was in the television series Boon in the episode entitled Peacemaker.

2. He met his wife, Sarah-Jane Fenton, at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art while performing the Shakespeare play Romeo and Juliet. And yes, he was playing Romeo and she was playing Juliet.

3. His career was damaged as a result of his role in the movie Close My Eyes (1991) in which he played a brother who has an incestuous relationship with his older sister.

Looks

With his smoldering dark looks, Clive has been one of the sexiest actors in Britain's since his days in tv show Chancer. However, recently with the success of movies such as Closer he has become one of Hollywood’s hottest leading men.

Body

Clive is a real man with a real man's body. He doesn't have perfectly sculpted abs and pecs, he doesn't bother about his muscle-fat ratio, and he's unlikely to spend hours in front of the mirror admiring himself. Sure, six packs and bulging biceps can be very sexy but after a while they can leave you wanting something less inflated. A big slice of natural British beef like Clive is just the ticket.

Lifestyle

Clive has been married to Sarah-Jane Fenton since March 1995 and the couple have two lovely children. He admirably likes to keep his home life out of the media spotlight and you'd be very surprised if he became involved in any kind of celebrity scandal. He's just a nice English guy who has excelled at his chosen profession.

Career

Clive is enjoying the most successful period in his career. Roles in movies such as Closer (2004) and Sin City (2005) have made Clive almost as popular in the States as he is over here. He even had the audacity to turn down the once in a lifetime chance to play James Bond. But if his stock continues to rise at its current rate it will undoubtedly prove to be the right decision.
