Ian Porter
Ian Porter (born April 12, 1965) is a versatile American-British actor and voice artist who has built an extensive career across major film, television, and stage productions over the last three decades. Born in Newport Pagnell, UK, but raised in Los Angeles, he lived in California until graduating from Long Beach State University before returning to the UK in 1988. He is widely recognized for his work in high-profile films such as Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan (1998), Robert Redford's Spy Game (2001), and more recently, The King's Man (2021) and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023). On television, his credits are equally impressive, featuring roles in The Crown, Doctor Who, 24: Live Another Day, and the Apple TV+ series Lockerbie: A Search for Truth. Porter has also established a massive presence in the world of theater and voiceover, frequently performing at London’s West End and the National Theatre in productions like August: Osage County and Driving Miss Daisy. His vocal range has made him a popular choice for major video games and audiobooks, further cementing his reputation as a "chameleon" of the industry. Looking ahead, he is part of the ensemble cast for the 2026 Netflix adaptation of People We Meet on Vacation, and he is slated to appear in upcoming projects such as Ride Out and Panic Carefully.
