Craig Heaney's role as Private Roy W. Cobb in Band of Brothers was a breakout role and the highlight of his career, with no other projects as prominent or lasting. Heaney's acting career seemed to have ended after his final role in The Queen in 2009, as he has not appeared on-screen since then. Cobb, Heaney's character, faced a downward spiral in the Army, culminating in his assault on a sergeant, resulting in a court-martial, discharge, and eventual move to New York, where he died of cancer later in life.
Band of Brothers tells the story of Easy Company — 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division in World War II, and the television show features an ensemble cast, including Craig Heaney as Private Roy W. Cobb. Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks created the HBO miniseries, which ran for ten episodes in late 2001 and received widespread critical claim.
