Harry Greenwood was born in 1989 to actor [[Hugo Weaving]] and artist Katrina Greenwood. His sister Holly (born in 1994) is also an artist. He uses his mother's surname, because his parents thought ‘Harry Weaving’ didn’t have the same ring as ‘Harry Greenwood’. He uses Weaving as his middle name.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.news.com.au/entertainment/harry-greenwood-shines-in-first-lead-tv-role-in-gallipoli-and-hes-the-spitting-image-of-dad-hugo-weaving/news-story/ddf98d4091b398579511387e4e3567b2 |title=Archived copy |access-date=23 December 2024 |archive-date=23 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220123210343/https://www.news.com.au/entertainment/harry-greenwood-shines-in-first-lead-tv-role-in-gallipoli-and-hes-the-spitting-image-of-dad-hugo-weaving/news-story/ddf98d4091b398579511387e4e3567b2 |url-status=live }}</ref>

Harry Weaving Greenwood is an Australian actor.

Early life and education

[edit]

Harry Greenwood was born in 1989 to actor Hugo Weaving and artist Katrina Greenwood. His sister Holly (born in 1994) is also an artist. He uses his mother's surname, because his parents thought ‘Harry Weaving’ didn’t have the same ring as ‘Harry Greenwood’. He uses Weaving as his middle name.[2]

After dabbling in Arts and Media Production degrees, Greenwood began studying a Bachelor of Dramatic Art (Acting) at National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA) when he was 21, graduating in 2012.[3]

Career

[edit]

In 2013, his first year after graduating from NIDA, Greenwood, 24, made his theatre debut as an angry 16 year old in the Sydney Theatre Company production of Fury. That same year he also starred in short film The Gift.[4]

His breakthrough role was as Digger Bevan Johnson (alongside Kodi Smit-McPhee), in 2015 Nine Network miniseries Gallipoli.[5] He also appeared in 2019 television series Bad Mothers.[6]

Greenwood has appeared in feature films The Nightingale (2018) and True History of the Kelly Gang (2019) alongside Russell Crowe[7] He also appeared in Mel Gibson’s biographical war film Hacksaw Ridge with his father, although they did not appear in any scenes together.[8]

In 2022, Greenwood starred in Sean Lahiff's debut film as director, Carnifex. A science fiction / horror film with large-scale special effects, the film also stars Alexandra Park and Sisi Stringer, and premiered at the Adelaide Film Festival in October 2022.[9] In 2024 he reunited with Russell Crowe in American crime thriller film Sleeping Dogs, as Richard Finn.

Greenwood's stage roles include STC productions, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof at the Roslyn Packer Theatre[6] (playing Brick, opposite his father Weaving's character Big Daddy)[10] and STC's Cloud Nine.[11]

Greenwood was named one of Casting Guild of Australia’s 10 Rising Stars of 2018.[12]
