    Jack Davenport, born in Suffolk, is an English actor. He portrays James Norrington in the Pirates of the Caribbean films.

    Jack Davenport was born on March 1, 1973 in Suffolk, England, United Kingdom to actors Maria Aitken and Nigel Davenport. Even though his parents were in the entertainment industry, Davenport came from a long line of British movers and shakers. His great-great uncle was politician and "London Evening Standard" publisher Sir William Maxwell Aitken, 1st Baron Beaverbrook; his maternal great-grandfather was British diplomat John Maffey, 1st Baron Rugby; and his maternal grandmother was Lady Penelope Aiken, an English socialite and Member of the Order of the British Empire. The future star spent much of his youth on a farm run by his parents, and was later sent to boarding school following their separation. Davenport studied Literature and Film Studies at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, England, where he discovered he was more interested in production work over acting. His mother, who played John Cleese's wife in "A Fish Called Wanda" (1988), suggested to her son that he contact Cleese for a production job as a runner on the 1997 comedy "Fierce Creatures." Cleese - who also wrote and starred in the film - forwarded the letter to the casting agent, who then hired Davenport for the minor role of a student zookeeper.

    Intrigued by acting, Davenport went through a rigorous audition process to land his breakthrough role as Miles Stewart, a law graduate sharing a house in South London with four roommates, in "This Life." The drama series focused on the complex relationships between the twenty-something barristers on and off the courtroom, with Davenport's Miles as the group's resident misogynist. "This Life" became more of a critical hit rather than a ratings winner, and only lasted two seasons. Davenport reunited with the cast on the 1997 special "This Life +10" (BBC), which gave a glimpse into the characters' lives a decade on. The actor began landing roles on British television and in cinema, playing Malcolm in "Macbeth" (1998) and the lead on "Ultraviolet" as a leather jacket-wearing detective who tracked down vampires. The series was often criticized for being a low-budget take on the hit U.S. series, "The X Files" (Fox, 1993-2002). Davenport's "Ultraviolet" character was similar to the role he played on the 1998 film "The Wisdom of Crocodiles," as Sergeant Roche, a detective investigating murders in London committed by a vampire (Jude Law). Davenport made his American film debut in "The Talented Mr. Ripley." The Anthony Minghella-directed drama starred Matt Damon in the title role and Jude Law as Dickie Greenleaf, the debonair object of Ripley's eerie obsession. Davenport played homosexual musician Peter Smith-Kingsley, a European jet setter who falls victim to Ripley's extremely sociopath behavior.
