Jamie Bell (born 14 March 1986, Billingham, England) is an English actor.
Bell’s breakthrough role was that of the eponymous Billy Elliot in Stephen
Daldry’s 2000 film. A pupil the Stagecoach Theatre School, his first acting
performance is reported to be in a London stage production of Bugsy Malone
at Christmas 1998, although he had been taking the ballet lessons which
would prepare him for the Billy Elliot role, since he was six.
