Henry Lloyd-Hughesâs Twitter bio states that he is âthe most famous actor youâve never heard ofâ. It is a line that appeared in a magazine profile of him last year. There is another profile, from five years earlier, that says roughly the same thing. He is a fantastic actor with a near flawless CV; if only he could somehow land that career-defining role that would push him over the top.
âItâs remarkable,â laughs Lloyd-Hughes, 35. âThe false dawns Iâve had. Iâm like the Teflon Don. You can put success near me, you can put me in the biggest-grossing British sitcom of all time, but it doesnât touch me. It just runs off me. Fame can come this close to me and yet it leaves no trace. Iâm immune to success.â
