Biografia
After attending Oxford on a Rhodes scholarship, Joy returned to St. John’s Newfoundland and joined the comedy group CODCO. Although he moved to New York three years later when he was cast as Peter in The Diary of Anne Frank, Joy remained involved with the planning of and performing in the Codco feature film The Adventures of Faustus Bidgood.
In 1980, Joy made a sensational film debut in Louis Malle’s Atlantic City opposite Susan Sarandon. He then alternated between work on the New York stage, and roles in other films such as Ragtime, and Ticket to Heaven. Subsequent film roles include Madonna’s boyfriend in Desperately Seeking Susan, Harriet’s dad in Harriet the Spy, Denzel Washington’s antagonist in Fallen and the troubled father in The Divine Ryans (with Pete Postlethwaite). In most recent years, Joy was one of the leads in George Romero’s Land of the Dead. He was one of the leads in the HBO comedy series The High Life and the ABC series MDs. He has guest starred on many shows including Alias, Without a Trace, The Agency, Gideon’s Crossing, Star Trek: Voyager and Law & Order.
