EWAN MCGREGOR

After his superb portrayal of junkie Mark Renton, Ewan starred in musical Moulin Rouge! alongside Nicole Kidman, before playing Obi-wan Kenobi in the Star Wars prequel trilogy.

He landed an OBE in 2013 and in 2016 swapped his passport for US citizenshi­p.

Ewan, 50, split from wife Eve Mavrakis after meeting actress Mary Elizabeth Winstead on the set of Fargo. They now have a son and he has four daughters with his ex.

This year Ewan won acclaim for his turn as the title character, American fashion designer Halston, in the Netflix mini-series.

JONNY LEE MILLER

He was Sick Boy in Trainspott­ing but there’s nothing vomit-inducing about the career that Jonny carved out for himself after the black comedy’s success.

He starred in Mansfield Park and The Flying Scotsman and also won an Olivier Award for his theatre stint in Frankenste­in.

But today he’s probably best known as a modern-day Sherlock Holmes in US show Elementary. He has been married twice – once to Angelina Jolie – and has a son with ex Michele Hicks.

Like Ewan, the 49-year-old is now an American citizen. His latest project, sci-fi thriller Settlers, came out in July.

World Is Not Enough.
