Acting career[[edit] | [edit source]]
Doctor Who was John Bell's first role. He later starred in the film A Shine of Rainbows, played Anthony Weaver in Life of Riley, and Bain in The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug and The Battle of the Five Armies.
In February 2022, Bell also performed in a production of the play The Night Larry Kramer Kissed Me. This was particularly notable to Bell as the performance was the first time he had played a character of the same sexuality as himself - saying "it was nice to go back and play something a bit more true to me".[2]
