Edward Akrout is a Franco-British actor and artist.
Raised in France, he studied philosophy at The Sorbonne before attending Le Cours Florent in Paris for theatre, followed by time at the National Institute in Bucharest. He moved to England where he studied acting at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. Since graduating in 2008, Akrout has been prominent on both the screen and the stage.
Born into an artistic family, painting came naturally to Akrout and has remained a passion of his. After selling his work privately for many years, he publicly debuted his artwork in February 2015 in response to overwhelming demand. His artistic designs are contemporary abstract, consisting of oil paintings along with acrylic, ink and charcoal drawings.
