Ray Stevenson is best known for his portrayal of Roman legionnaire Titus Pullo on the HBO series Rome [2005-2007] and as Marvel Comic's anti-hero Frank Castle in the movie Punisher: War Zone [Lionsgate / 2008].
Since completing Rome, and prior to the Punisher, Ray starred in the indie action-horror film Outpost [Black Camel / 2008], and opposite Joanne Whalley in the television thriller Life Line [BBC / 2007].
In May 2009 Ray finished production on The Book of Eli [Alcon Ent. / 2010], with Denzel Washington and Gary Oldman and directed by Albert Hughes and Allen Hughes. Earlier in the year he completed work on Cirque du Freak [Universal / 2010], an action fantasy film with Selma Hayek, John C. Reilly, and Willem Dafoe.
Ray is currently in production on The Irishman [Code Ent. / 2010] in the lead role of Danny Greene, an Irish American gangster in Cleveland during the 1970s. The film is written and directed by Jonathan Hensleigh and also stars Christopher Walken, Val Kilmer, Vincent D'Onofrio, Paul Sorvino, and Vinnie Jones.
Later this year Ray will begin work on Tribes of October [Vallelonga Prods. / 2011] with Robert Duvall and James Caan, and on David Hayter's Slaughter's Road [Dark Hero / 2010].
Among his other television credits are: recurring roles on At Home with the Braithwaites [2000] and City Central [1998], and several mini-series including The Return of the Native [1994] with Catherine Zeta-Jones and Clive Owen.
Ray's additional film credits include: King Arthur [2004] with Clive Owen, Ray Winstone and Keira Knightley, The Theory of Flight [1998] with Kenneth Branagh and Helena Bonham-Carter, and Some Kind of Life [1995] with Jane Horrocks.
Born in Lisburn, Northern Ireland, he moved with his family to Lemington, Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, England in 1972 at the age of eight, and later to Cramlington, Northumberland, where he was raised. The second of three sons of a Royal Air Force pilot father and an Irish mother, Ray, as a child, dreamt of becoming an actor but thought the dream impossible to achieve. So he pursued his other love, art, and went to art school instead. He was an interior designer with an architectural firm in London when he at 25 decided to try out acting. Eventually he attended Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, graduating at the age of 29.
