Scott Adkins (born 17 June 1976) is an English actor who is perhaps best known for playing Bradley Hume in Holby City and Ed Russell in Mile High. Adkins has also appeared in Dangerfield, Hollyoaks and many other TV series as well as many films.
[edit] Personal lifeAdkins was born in Sutton Coldfield, England, into a family that for generations were butchers. He has an elder brother, Craig. A natural athlete, Scott enjoyed a variety of sports as he grew up, but when he was 10 years old, he accompanied his father and brother to the local Judo club, thus beginning an extensive association with various martial arts. Adkins is married to Elizabeth Victoria "Beth" KyleLynn-Adkins (born on January 4, 1987 in Manhattan, New York, United States). They were married on March 19, 2007 at St. Teresa of Avila Catholic Church in Sleepy Hollow, New York in the United States. The couple have one child. Their son, Hayden Shane Adkins, was born on May 15, 2009 in Sutton Coldfield, England. Since Adkins and KyleLynn's marriage, he has stated that his marriage to his wife and having their child has given him "real foundation, a real strong place to stand in life, in work, in everything." "You can't plan the kind of deep love that results into a child. Fatherhood was not a conscious decision. It was part of the wonderful ride I was on. It was destiny; kismet. All the math finally worked." The family divides its time between their homes in London, England, The Bronx, New York and Los Angeles, California. [edit] Martial Arts careerAt the age of 14, Scott went on to train in Tae Kwon Do under the instruction of Ron Sergiew with the T.A.G.B. After a few years he moved on to kickboxing under Anthony Jones [disambiguation needed]. He is now a fully trained kickboxing Instructor for the P.K.A. Adkins has black belts in Wushu, Tae Kwon Do, Kickboxing, Judo and Jujutsu.[citation needed] [edit] Acting careerScott enrolled in a drama class at Sutton Coldfield College. At the age of 21, Scott was offered a place at the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art. However, as an impoverished student he found it hard to make ends meet without a grant, and was forced to leave without completing the course. His first professional break came when he was offered a role in a Hong Kong martial arts film called “Extreme Challenge” and found himself in the East for the first time. Scott got the chance to work with some of Hong Kong cinema’s leading action directors including Yeun Wo Ping, Cory Yeun, Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan. Acting roles started to come in and he was offered a guest role in BBC’s “Doctors” filmed at Birmingham’s Pebble Mill. Roles followed in BBC’s “EastEnders” and “City Central”, Sky One comedy drama “Mile High” and a regular role in BBC’s “Holby City” as Bradley Hume, the assistant General Manager of Holby General. Scott's first leading role in Isaac Florentine's "Ninja" was released theatrically in Malaysia on Oct.29, 2009, and will be released in the United States on March 2, 2010.
