Ethan Hawke Biography

Ethan Hawke first appeared on stage when he was 13 in a high school production of St. Joan. He was 14 when he made his first movie starring opposite River Phoenix in Explorers about teen boys in outer-space. Four years later Dead Poets Society made Hawke a heartthrob. He played the fragile kid in Robin Williams' class who said Truth is like a blanket that always leaves your feet cold.
Hawke has often portrayed lonely or wayward young men with a few days' stubble or a goatee. For young audiences the whiskers give Hawke an aura of rakish charm. For an older crowd it's a look that says 'perpetual adolescent.'
His films are usually as serious as Hawke himself including Alive: The Miracle of the Andes Before Sunrise and Before Sunset Gattaca Snow Falling on Cedars Training Day and 2000's high-rise corporate-backstabbing Hamlet. He directed the starving-artist mood piece Chelsea Walls. Reality Bites was a rarity a Hawke film that could arguably be called a comedy.
Hawke's five-year marriage to Uma Thurman collapsed in 2003 as both he and she apparently had concurrent affairs. Hawke frolicked with a Montreal woman Jennifer Perzow as he was in Canada filming Taking Lives while Thurman was 'taking direction' from Kill Bill's Quentin Tarantino.
