The Life and Work of Actor Ciaran Hinds

Ciaran Hinds is an Irish actor who is vastly known for his versatility in television, stage and film with a filmography that includes such films as "There Will Be Blood," "Soldier," "Munich," "Mrs. Pettigrew Lives For a Day" and "The Phantom of the Opera." Before he began his film career he was a part of the Royal Shakespeare Company where he performed in several Shakespeare plays on the live stage in London, England.

He is also known as actor Liam Neeson's very good friend. Both born and raised in Ireland, Ciaran and Liam remain very close, showing each other great love and support; when Liam Neeson's wife Natasha passed away in 2009, Ciaran stood by his side as a pallbearer at the funeral. The tragedy also helped Ciaran play his role as a widower in the movie "Eclipse" very well. Ciaran continues to act in movies, television and theater today with a number of projects in the works.
