Tom Leigh

Tom Leigh’s journey into acting isn’t exactly your typical “drama school at 18” story. Nope—he spent years with the Royal Marines Commandos before swapping boots for the stage, and you can totally feel that in his work. The guy’s got this gritty, real-deal energy, like someone who’s actually lived the stuff most actors just pretend to know. You see his name pop up all over—films, TV, theatre, you name it. He’s done off-West End (The Other Palace), jet-setted to Canada for international shows, landed roles in commercials, and even juggled producing and starring in “Sunray: Fallen Soldier.” And trust me, he’s not just the face on the poster; he’s the one making sure the military scenes don’t look like a cheap Halloween costume party. Leigh’s been the go-to military advisor on a bunch of high-profile gigs, both on-screen and onstage, and it shows—his projects have this authenticity that’s tough to fake. It’s not just about the work, though. Leigh’s got a heart for charity, especially with the Soldiers Arts Academy, where he helps other veterans find their voice in the arts. It’s pretty clear he’s not just cashing a paycheck—he’s using everything he’s learned (the hard way) and giving something back. Whether he’s commanding a scene or lifting up others behind the scenes, Tom Leigh’s managed to carve out a space that’s all his own. The guy’s career is still climbing, and honestly? It’s hard not to root for him.
