description: "The bruiser who became prestige. Crowe's intensity made him a fixture in oscar-bait dramas and ancient-world epics, the kind of actor directors cast when the script calls for a man who looks like he could start or end a war."

# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born in New Zealand in 1964, Crowe moved to Australia at four and broke through locally with Romper Stomper in 1992. International recognition came with L.A. Confidential in 1997 and The Insider in 1999, the latter earning his first Academy Award nomination. He won the Oscar for Gladiator in 2000, then landed a third nomination for A Beautiful Mind in 2001, playing mathematician John Forbes Nash Jr. The decade that followed ran from Master and Commander and Cinderella Man through Robin Hood and Les Misérables, later stretching into blockbusters like Man of Steel and Thor: Love and Thunder. He directed and starred in The Water Diviner in 2014, and since 2006 has co-owned the South Sydney Rabbitohs rugby team.
