Ed McVey (born 30 May 1999) grew up on a farm in Devon in southwest England. The actor is a graduate of Drama Centre London, and worked as an usher at London’s Playhouse Theatre before he made his screen acting debut as Prince William in Netflix’s hit series “The Crown.” Previously, he appeared in “Camp Siegfried” at The Old Vic Theatre. He's signed with UTA for representation, and is also repped by Anonymous Content, AHA Talent and Pinnacle PR. He has performed in several plays including Rosmerholm, Government Inspector, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and The Pains of Youth. One of the deciding factors in getting his role in The Crown was his ability to speak with the RP 'Queen's English' accent. Outside of acting, he enjoys martial arts and kickboxing in his spare time.
John Lennon was an English singer, songwriter, musician, and activist who co-founded the Beatles, the most commercially successful and musically influential band in the history of popular music. He and fellow member Paul McCartney formed a much-celebrated songwriting partnership.Born and raised in Liverpool, Lennon became involved in the skiffle craze as a teenager; his first band, the Quarrymen, was named the Silver Beatles, and finally evolved into the Beatles in 1960. When the group disbanded in 1970, Lennon embarked on a sporadic solo career that produced albums including John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band and Imagine, and songs such as "Give Peace a Chance", "Working Class Hero", and "Imagine". After he married Yoko Ono in 1969, he added "Ono" as one of his middle names. Lennon disengaged himself from the music business in 1975 to raise his infant son Sean, but re-emerged with Ono in 1980 with the new album Double Fantasy. He was shot and killed in front of his Manhattan apartment three weeks after its release.Lennon revealed a rebellious nature and acerbic wit in his music, writing, drawings, on film and in interviews. Controversial through his political and peace activism, he moved from London to Manhattan in 1971, where his criticism of the Vietnam War resulted in a lengthy attempt by the Nixon administration to deport him. Some of his songs were adopted as anthems by the anti-war movement and the larger counterculture.In 1987, he was posthumously inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Lennon was twice inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame—first in 1988 as a member of the Beatles and again in 1994 as a solo artist.
