William Hurst is a versatile actor known for his dry wit, emotional depth, and quietly intense screen presence. He excels in complex roles, from sardonic anti-heroes to emotionally worn professionals. With a youthful look and mature energy, William brings nuance and sharp timing to every character, making him perfect for dark comedy, morally gray roles, and characters that are never quite what you expect — think Ryan Reynolds meets Rami Malek with a touch of Ben Whishaw cool.
