David Harewood is an actor, director, author and activist. He was born in Birmingham, trained at RADA, and made a name for himself on the stage, with big roles that included Othello and Martin Luther King.


Most recently, he played the right-wing commentator William Buckley Jr. in Best Of Enemies. A fantastic production that is currently screening in cinemas, thanks to National Theatre Live.


His diverse screen work includes film, documentaries, and the hit thriller Homeland, which saw David relocate to America for a decade.


David often shines a light on issues and subjects that he cares about, through his roles and documentary subjects. And he spoke about racism and a psychotic breakdown with great honesty in his 2021 memoir Maybe I Don’t Belong Here. All of which is covered in this wide-ranging and candid conversation.
