Sheen’s breakthrough role saw him play British PM Tony Blair in this Channel 4 film from writer Peter Morgan.
The fifth collaboration between Sheen and writer Morgan saw him play football manager Brian Clough in a role that solidified him as the quintessential go-to actor for British icons.
Michael Sheen has announced that he’s to quit acting in favour of becoming a full-time activist.
Sheen reunited with Morgan and Frears to reprise the role of Blair in Oscar-winning drama The Queen.
