An established star of film, television and theater, Scottish actor
Kevin McKidd made his feature film debut in 1996, starring in Gillies
MacKinnon’s “Small Faces,” followed by a starring role alongside
Ewan McGregor in the film “Trainspotting.” He has also been a
brooding Caesar-era soldier in HBO’s “Rome” and a
time-travelling journalist in the 2007 NBC drama “Journeyman.”

In recent years, McKidd appeared in the films “North of Hell” and
the Justin Chadwick-directed “Tulip Fever.” He also voiced the
character Reptillus Maximus in the Pixar animated holiday TV special
“Toy Story That Time Forgot” on ABC. In addition, McKidd voiced
two characters, Young MacGuffin and Lord MacGuffin, in the
Disney/Pixar animated film “Brave” in 2012. In 2010, he appeared
alongside Rosario Dawson, Uma Thurman and Pierce Brosnan in Chris
Columbus’ “Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief.”
In 2008, he co-starred in the romantic comedy “Made of Honor,”
alongside Michelle Monaghan. Other film credits include “Hannibal
Rising”; Ridley Scott’s “Kingdom of Heaven”; the Irwin Winkler
musical “De-Lovely” with Kevin Kline and Ashley Judd; “Sixteen
Years of Alcohol,” for which he was nominated for Best Actor at the
British Independent Film Awards; “Nicholas Nickleby”; “Hideous
Kinky” with Kate Winslet; and “Max” with John Cusack.

In 2007, McKidd made his debut on American network television as the
star of NBC’s “Journeyman.” While the show was short-lived, it
resonated with television critics and helped establish McKidd as a
household name. Prior to “Journeyman,” he starred in HBO’s
Golden Globe and Emmy®-nominated “Rome.” Other television credits
include “The Virgin Queen,” “Gunpowder, Treason and Plot” and
“North Square.”

McKidd’s theater credits include “Richard III,”
“Britannicus,” for which he won an Ian Charleston Award, and
“Far Away.” He also released an album of traditional Scottish folk
songs, “The Speyside Sessions,” with a group of friends in 2012.
Proceeds from the album benefit the charity Save the Children, for
which McKidd is an ambassador.

Born and raised in Scotland, McKidd was a member of the Moray Youth
Theatre. He became involved in the Bedlam Theatre Company while a
student at the University of Edinburgh, and it was there that he
decided to pursue acting full time. His first leading role came in the
Wild Cat Theatre Company-produced “The Silver Darlings,” for which
he won the Gulliver Award.

McKidd currently resides in Los Angeles with his family.
