	Actors - Ewen Bremner

Ewen Bremner (born in 1971 in Edinburgh, Scotland) is a Scottish actor. A son of two art teachers, he originally wanted to be a circus clown, but was offered a chance in showbusiness by television director Richard D. Brooks.

Bremner is probably best known to British audiences for his portrayal of Spud in Danny Boyle's film adaptation of Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting, and Mullet the wimpish street thug in Guy Ritchie's Snatch
. In Trainspotting, Bremner played the childlike, likeable, gullible and seemingly doomed Spud to excellent reviews and in Snatch is probably best remembered for his memorable interrogation scene with Vinnie Jones.

In the 1995 stage version of Trainspotting Bremner played the lead role of Renton, the role played by Ewan McGregor in the film. This may have been an early sign that Bremner's career would not take off in the same way that McGregor and Robert Carlyle's would.

In America he is probably best known for playing supporting roles in blockbusters such as Pearl Harbor and Black Hawk Down
, in which he appeared alongside fellow Trainspotting star Ewan McGregor.
