Peter Dinklage

PETER DINKLAGE won the 2011 Emmy and 2012 Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor for his performance as Tyrion in the HBO series “Game of Thrones.” The acclaimed fantasy-adventure.

With his supporting role in Tom DeCillo’s “Living in Oblivion,” Peter delivered an open rant to an entire generation of would-be filmmakers, refusing to be used as a gag or a prop – while honoring his craft with an unforgettable fierceness and dignity. Peter got his shot at redefining the concept of a leading man with his starring role in the Sundance Audience Award winner “The Station Agent,” which drew standing ovations at the 2003 Sundance Film Festival and was immediately bought and released by Miramax.

After winning Sundance’s Dramatic Audience Award, Peter was a SAG Award nominee for Best Actor 2004, an Independent Spirit Award nominee for Best Actor 2004, and was named one of the top five breakout stars of the year by Entertainment Weekly and was prominently featured in People’s Sexiest Man Alive issue. He has been extremely busy ever since.

Other feature credits include Jon Favreau’s “Elf,” Michel Gondry’s “Human Nature,” written by Charlie Kaufman, “Penelope,” a leading role in “The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian,” “St. John of Las Vegas,” “Pete Smalls is Dead,” which Dinklage also produced, and Sony’s comedy “Death at a Funeral.”

Returning to his theatre roots, Peter starred in a Lincoln Center production on the life of painter Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec for director Martha Clark; the title role in The Public Theatre’s critically acclaimed “Richard III”; Charlie Kaufman’s “Theatre of the New Ear,” also starring Meryl Streep and Hope Davis; and “Knickerbocker,” at Williamstown.

Peter’s television credits include series for HBO, CBS, ABC, and for producers like David Heyman, David Goyer and David Benioff. Peter recurred on the hit show “Nip/Tuck” for F/X and did a guest spot written for him, opposite Tina Fey, on “30 Rock.”
