Ian Holm was born on 12 September 1931, in Goodmayes, Essex, England to Scottish parent mother Jean, a nurse, and James, a psychiatrist. Holm is known as a former stage and movie actor.

So just how rich is Ian Holm, as of late 2017? Authoritative sources report that Holm’s net worth is as high as $10 million, accumulated from his over five decades long career in the entertainment industry.

Ian attended Chigwell School in Essex. The family moved to Worthing, where he was introduced to Henry Baynton who helped him prepare for the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, securing his place there in 1949. His education was temporarily stopped for national service in the British Army, but Ian eventually graduated in 1953. He moved to on-stage acting Stratford, subsequently joining the Royal Shakespeare Company in 1960.

He went on to appear on ‘’ITC Sunday Night Theatre’’ and ‘’Armchair Theatre’’, both television series screened in 1970. In the following year, Holm portrayed Ruthvan, a supporting character in ‘’Mary, Queen of Scots’’, which received a mostly positive response, and holds a score of seven point five out of ten stars on IMDB as of today.

Holm continued making guest-star appearances on TV series throughout the early ‘70s, including in ‘’The Frighteners’’, subsequently playing a starring role in ‘’The Homecoming’’, a 1973 British drama film, based on the play of the same title, written by Harold Pinter.

In addition, Holm’s portrayal of Mitchell Stephens in the previously mentioned film was nominated for several other awards including Chicago Film Critics Association Award for Best Actor. In 2001, Ian was cast as Bilbo Baggins in ‘’ The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring’’, and two years later, he joined the cast of the film to make the sequel entitled ‘’ The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King’’, and reprised the role in two other sequels, ‘’ The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey’’ and ‘’The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies’’ released in 2012 and 2014 respectively.

Ian Holm Quotes

• I’ve always been a minimalist. It was Bogart who once said, “If you think the right thoughts, the camera will pick it up.” The most important thing in the face is the eyes, and if you can make the eyes talk, you’re halfway there.
• While shooting in Mexico, all conversation was dominated by bowels. During filming, if you’ll pardon the expression, you’re frightened to fart.
