Joseph Mawle is a well-known English actor who has appeared in

of Joseph Mawle, from early years through his incredible career and
personal life.Joseph Mawle Wiki / Biography
Joseph Mawle was born on 21st March 1974 in Oxford, England. He
is most known for his performances in the tv series Game of Thrones
as Benjen Stark, the film Ripper Street as Detective Inspector
Jedediah Shine, the film Birdsong as Firebrace, the film The Passion
as Jesus Christ, the film The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power as
Adar, and the film Troy: Fall of a City as Odysseus.
Early Life
His upbringing was distinctive because he was raised on a farm just
outside Shipston-on-Stour, Warwickshire, in a Victorian manor
house. He comes from a Warwickshire family with a long history of
farming spanning nine generations. His father, Richard, is still a
farmer, and his mother was a teacher.
Joseph went to the Croft prep school on the outskirts of Stratford-
upon-Avon when he was younger. His severe dyslexia was discovered
during his school years and from the time he was 13 to the time he
was 16, he attended a boarding school for students with exceptional
needs. His journey to becoming an actor officially began with this
encounter.
However, Joseph Mawle’s fate was different. He had labyrinthitis at
the age of 16, which left him with a persistent tinnitus and a 70%
hearing loss in the upper register. Despite these obstacles, Joseph
was serious about pursuing his dream of performing.
He convinced the director of the neighborhood college in Stratford-
upon-Avon to grant him permission to pursue a BTEC in performing
arts while holding down a number of jobs, including those of a fitness
trainer and dishwasher.
Joseph began acting around this time, appearing in shows with the
Box Clever Theatre Company and mounting his own version of “Solo
Hamlet.” He eventually received a scholarship to attend the
esteemed Bristol Old Vic Theatre School as a result of his
perseverance.
Career Beginnings
In 2002, Joseph Mawle received his diploma from the Bristol Old Vic
Theatre School. He made an appearance in Guinness tv commercials
that same year. Joseph started his acting career despite not having
an agent when he graduated from theatre school and worked as an
assistant in a special needs school.
His breakthrough came in 2003 when he took on the role of Troilus in
a Shakespeare at the Tobacco Factory production of “Troilus and
Cressida“. His performances in other plays, such as “Hamlet” at the
Nuffield Theatre in Southampton and “Antony and Cleopatra” at the
Royal Exchange in Manchester in 2005, further enhanced his
reputation.
But it was his performance in the 2006 television movie
“Soundproof” that made him famous. The lead actor in this movie
had to be deaf, and Joseph’s performance received favorable
reviews. He was nominated for the RTS Breakthrough on Screen
Award.
