Early life and ancestry


Huston was born on 7 December 1982 in King's Lynn, Norfolk, the son of Lady Margot Lavinia (née Cholmondeley) and actor, assistant director and writer Tony Huston.[citation needed] Huston decided to become an actor at the age of 6, after playing the title role in a school production of Peter Pan.[2] He later attended Hurtwood House, a drama institute.[3]

His mother is English and his father is American. His paternal aunt is actress Anjelica Huston, and his paternal half-uncle is actor Danny Huston.[4] His paternal grandparents were American director John Huston (who became an Irish citizen) and model/dancer Enrica Soma, and his maternal grandparents were The 6th Marquess of Cholmondeley and Lavinia Margaret (née Leslie).[citation needed] Huston is the nephew of The 7th Marquess of Cholmondeley. On his father's side, he has Italian, Irish, Scottish, Scotch-Irish, Welsh, and English ancestry, and is a great-grandson of Canadian actor Walter Huston.[5]

Through his maternal grandfather's father, The 5th Marquess of Cholmondeley, Huston is descended from Sir Robert Walpole, the first Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Great Britain. Jack's maternal grandfather's mother, Sybil, Marchioness of Cholmondeley, was from a Jewish family (from Iraq, India, and Germany);[6][7] through Sybil, Jack is descended from both David Sassoon, the Treasurer of Baghdad, and Mayer Amschel Rothschild, who founded the Rothschild family international banking dynasty.[8]


Career


Huston started his film career with a small screen adaptation of Spartacus, where he played Flavius. He then went on to having more prominent roles in such films as Factory Girl, playing the American poet Gerard Malanga, the horror film Shrooms, Outlander and Shrink.

After this he went on to be directed by Al Pacino in the 2011 film Wilde Salome and to having starring roles in Not Fade Away, Two Jacks and Night Train to Lisbon. In 2012, he played the part of narrator on avant-garde musician John Zorn's album A Vision in Blakelight, an homage to William Blake.[citation needed]

In 2020, he had a supporting role in the fourth season of the FX black comedy crime drama Fargo as Odis Weff, a corrupt Kansas City police detective with severe OCD.
