Ivan Simon Cary Elwes was born in Westminster, London, England, on 26 October 1962 – his zodiac sign is Scorpio, and he holds British nationality. He’s appeared in more than 130 movies and TV series, while he’s perhaps still known best for his portrayal of the lead character, Dr. Lawrence Gordon in the 2004 mystery horror thriller movie “Saw”. It was written and directed by James Wan, also starred Leigh Whannell and Danny Glover, and follows two people who have just awoken in a room, and have learned that they’ll be killed if they don’t play the game created by a serial killer; the movie won eight of the 18 awards for which it was nominated.
Cary was raised in London alongside his two older brothers and a sister, by their mother Tessa Kennedy who was an interior designer, and their father Dominic Elwes who was a portrait painter. Cary was four when his parents divorced, and when he was 13, his father committed suicide.
His brother Cassian is a film producer, his other brother Damian is an artist, and their sister Milica was also a film producer – she died in March 2021 from Stage 4 cancer.
He studied at Harrow School, and upon matriculating in 1980, enrolled at London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. Cary moved to the US in the following year, switching to Sarah Lawrence College in Bronxville, New York State, from which he graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in acting in 1984. He also practiced acting at both the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute and Actors Studio.
Cary’s first notable performance was in the 1984 historical romantic movie “Another Country”; in 1987 he appeared in the romantic fantasy movie “The Princess Bride”, which is today considered to be a cult classic.
In 1991, he played Kent Gregory, one of the main characters in the critically acclaimed action comedy movie “Hot Shots!”, written and directed by Jim Abrahams, and which also starred Charlie Sheen and Valeria Golino. It’s a parody of the movie “Top Gun”, and the film won a Golden Screen, Germany Award. A couple of his other notable performances in the ‘90s were in the 1994 romantic family adventure film “The Jungle Book”, the 1997 mystery crime movie “Kiss the Girls”, and the 1999 drama film “Cradle Will Rock”.
What was perhaps the most successful movie in which Cary appeared in the 2000s was the 2007 comedy “Georgia Rule”; directed by Garry Marshall, it starred Jane Fonda, Lindsay Lohan and Felicity Huffman, and follows a young woman who’s spending the summer with her grandmother; the movie won three of the eight awards for which it was nominated.
Three of Cary’s most recent roles have been in the movies “Burning at Both Ends”, “A Castle for Christmas” and “Last Train to Christmas”, all released in 2021; he has just recently finished shooting for the upcoming action film “The Hyperions”, and the action thriller comedy movie “Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre”.
Cary has been nominated for eight awards for his acting skills, including for “Kiss the Girls” and “Saw”, but without ultimate success.
