Matthew Beard is an English actor born in 25 March, 1989 in London, England. He is best known for his roles as the shy Graham in the Academy Award nominated film Une éducation (2009) and the mathematician Peter Hilton, one of the key members of Alan Turing's team in the acclaimed film Imitation Game (2014).

Handsome, classy and with a boyish looks that got him many different roles as a teenager, Beard made his debut in front of the screen in the series Big Meg, Little Meg (2000). After many appearances in TV series and TV film, Matthew made his theatrical film debut in the drama/comedy And When Did You Last See Your Father? (2007) alongside veteran Jim Broadbent in a moving story about a son trying to connect with his father. The intense dramatic role of Jim Chatroom (2010) made him a more recognizable face since this time he was playing the lead character.

With director Lone Scherfig, he appeared in three films: Une éducation (2009) , Un jour (2011) and The Riot Club (2014).

Other roles includes: A very Englishman (2013), La Prophétie de l'anneau (2015), Carnage: Swallowing the Past (2017), Elizabeth Harvest (2018) and Johnny English contre-attaque (2018); and roles in the series Kiss Me First, Avenue 5 and Vienna Blood. He's still a star on rise, highly talented with many upcoming projects on the way.

    • Quotes
      Being Peter [in the Imitation Game (2014)] every day was quite an enjoyable process; being Guy in The Riot Club (2014) was quite horrible. Hearing those stories and trying to understand that mentality rather than to judge it, which is of course the instinct of any good person. Laura Wade, who wrote The Riot Club (2014), gave each of our characters a huge back-story, which allowed you to focus on how they got to this point and maybe sympathize with them. I got Peter straight away. He had a clear goal and said many times in real life that Bletchley was the most fun he's ever had. But The Riot Club (2014) was much more challenging.
