Biography

About Sophia Myles

Edited by the community

Sophia Myles, a British actress, is known for her refined, genteel on-screen presence, a sharp contrast to the rebellious roles that marked her early career. Born in London on March 18, 1980, she began acting in her teens, appearing in classic adaptations like Oliver Twist (1999), Nicholas Nickleby (2000), and Tristan & Isolde (2005). Her move to Hollywood brought mainstream sci-fi films such as Underworld: Evolution (2006) and Outlander (2008), as well as the fantasy series Moonlight (2007), where she played a journalist saved by a vampire.

On British television, Myles found further success with MI-5. Her personal life has drawn attention too; she dated actors Charles Dance and David Tennant, the latter after they filmed a Doctor Who episode in 2006. In September 2014, she gave birth to a son, fathered by her partner James Bell. The child's godmother is her friend, actress Celia Imrie.

Standing 5'6" with blonde hair and blue eyes, Myles has an average build and natural bust. After 30 years in the industry, she continues to work, though details of her recent projects are sparse. Her career bridges period drama and genre entertainment, a versatility that has kept her relevant across decades.
