Leon Edwards(II)
- Actor
- Director
Leon Edwards is a British actor and director known for his commanding performances and commitment to immersive, character-driven storytelling. Born and raised in Leicestershire in the Midlands, Edwards developed an early passion for visual narrative, studying Media Production at the University of Lincoln before advancing his training in stage and screen and earning a degree from the University of West London.
In addition to classical performance training, Edwards has developed specialised skills in motion-capture performance and firearms handling, equipping him for physically demanding and genre-rich roles across film and television.
He gained recognition for his portrayal of "Rocket" in Blood Orange-a calculated, low-level blackmailer whose quiet brutality left a lasting impression. He followed that with Tiny Little Voices, stepping into the boots of a rough-edged bounty hunter on a harsh western frontier. In Unfettered, Edwards explored psychological territory as a jaded guardian within the subconscious mind, embodying pure cynicism with measured intensity.
With a growing portfolio that blends grounded realism with stylised genre work, Leon Edwards continues to push boundaries both in front of and behind the camera.
