Dave Lizewski/Kick-Ass Was Johnson's breakout role, with the British actor going on to become one of the most buzzed about actors of his generation.

In addition to returning for the Kick-Ass sequel, the 29-year-old starred in Savages, Anna Karenina, and Godzilla, as well as joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Quicksilver in Avengers: Age of Ultron. In 2016, Johnson won Best Supporting Actor at the Golden Globes for his turn in Nocturnal Animals. 

After meeting on the set of their 2009 film Nowhere Boy, with their age difference making headlines as he was 18 and she was 42, Johnson married director Sam Taylor-Wood in 2012, with the couple changing their surname to Taylor-Johnson. The couple have two children together, and Johnson is step-father to the 50 Shades of Grey director's two daughters from a previous marriage.
