Robert Boyd Holbrook[1] (born September 1, 1981[2][3]) is an American actor. He has starred in the Netflix series Narcos (2015–2016) as DEA agent Steve Murphy and The Sandman (2022–) as the Corinthian, as well as in the History miniseries Hatfields & McCoys as "Cap" Hatfield. He starred as Billy in The Skeleton Twins (2014), Peter Kristo in A Walk Among the Tombstones (2014), Donald Pierce in Logan (2017), Quinn McKenna in The Predator (2018), Pinkins in O.G. (2019), Thomas Lockhart in In the Shadow of the Moon (2019), Ty Shaw in Vengeance (2022), and Clement Mansell in Justified: City Primeval (2023).

Early life[edit]

Holbrook was born in Prestonsburg, Kentucky, the son of Ellen and Don Holbrook.[4] Holbrook also has a sister, Delora Holbrook, who is 3 years older.

Career[edit]

Holbrook was discovered while working part-time as a carpenter for Jenny Wiley Theatre in Kentucky.[1][5] He signed with Elite Models in 2001. He has worked for other agencies such as Wilhelmina Models.[6] Holbrook has been a model for such designers and labels as Dior, Gucci, Jean Paul Gaultier, Versace, Hugo Boss, Bill Blass, Calvin Klein, Moschino, Marc Jacobs and DSquared².[7][citation needed]

Holbrook and model Omahyra Mota were the subjects of photographer Ellen Von Unwerth Paris gallery exhibition "Omahyra & Boyd" and the 2005 book of that title from Exhibitions International (ISBN 2-914171-20-X).[8][9]

He released a short series of poems through the website Model-Max.com, accompanied by illustrations by Jamie Strachan.[10]

Holbrook studied acting with the William Esper Studio's two-year Meisner Acting Program and with Shane Ann Younts' two-year voice and speech program, and he received an SCPS Certificate in 16mm film from New York University.[11] He also has worked with acting coach Terry Knickerbocker.[12]

His prior acting work includes a role in the "Allison" music video for Permanent Me alongside model Tiah Eckhardt.[13]

Holbrook is a photographer who has done work for David Armstrong. He is also a sculptor and exhibited his work in his first art show, "Iscariot", at the Rare gallery in Chelsea, New York from April 19 to May 17, 2008.[14]

In 2014, Holbrook appeared as Jeff in David Fincher's psychological thriller Gone Girl.[15]

Holbrook portrayed DEA agent Steve Murphy in the Netflix series Narcos. In 2017, Holbrook played Donald Pierce, the antagonist in Logan, the sequel to The Wolverine.[16][17] In 2019, Holbrook starred as Thomas Lockhart in the Netflix thriller film, In the Shadow of the Moon.[18]

In January 2021, Holbrook was cast as The Corinthian in the Netflix adaptation of The Sandman.[19]

In May 2021, Holbrook was cast in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.[20] He played Klaber, a Nazi operative and right-hand man to Mads Mikkelsen's Dr. Jurgen Voller. Holbrook stated that he learned several acting lessons from Harrison Ford while filming Dial of Destiny, including how "[he] definitely taught me that you do not walk away unless you know in your gut that you got it and there's not a false note."[21] Dial of Destiny was also Holbrook's second collaboration with Logan director James Mangold; Holbrook defended the movie's conclusion, stating that "when I saw [the finale], I was surprised that it grabbed me by the throat. I was a little emotional, even though I’m so close to it.” [22]

Personal life[edit]

Holbrook has dated actress Elizabeth Olsen. They became engaged in March 2014, but in January 2015, Olsen ended their engagement the same day Holbrook's friend died. Holbrook said the split felt like "a divorce".[23][24]

He married Danish artist Tatiana Pajkovic in 2018. On January 15, 2018, Pajkovic gave birth to a son.[25][26]
