Description:
Jonny (sometimes credited as Johnny) Lee Miller was born on November 15, 1972, in Kingston, England, UK. He is the son of actors Anna Lee and Alan Miller and the grandson of actor Bernard Lee. After appearing in many high school plays at his selective state grammar school, Jonny dropped out at 17 to pursue acting full time. Although he was reportedly quiet and shy in high school, he certainly expresses himself well in all his films. His very first popular film was Hackers (1995), alongside Angelina Jolie and Matthew Lillard. Later his co-star Angelina became his wife. They were divorced three years later. Interesting fact is that his entire family is well into acting, all the way back to his grandparents. He has a partnership in the production company Natural Nylon, which also includes Jude Law and Ewan McGregor, his co-star in Trainspotting (1996).

Quotes
New York and LA are both great places to visit, but I wouldn't want to
live in either of them now. I find New York extremely claustrophobic
and dirty. LA is quite a nice place. But there's no hustle and bustle,
no street life. Everyone's going from A to B in a car. Why did I leave
[America]? My relationship [with Angelina Jolie] was going bad
and I missed England, simple things like smells and major things like
the British sense of humor.
