William Moseley

William Moseley was born in the United Kingdom, Sheepscombe, Gloucestershire, England in the Cotswolds. He is the son of Julie and Peter Moseley, a cinematographer. Moseley is the eldest of three children: Daisy (born 1989) and Benjamin Moseley (born 1992). Moseley attended Sheepscombe Primary School from September 1991 to July 1998, and then continued his education at Wycliffe College with final year at Downfield 6th Form College, Stroud (which is part of Marling School and its next door neighbour Stroud High School). He had to repeat upper sixth because he had taken so much time off school while filming The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. At the age of 7, William listened to the Chronicles of Narnia audio tapes. He read the books eight years later in preparation for his role as Peter Pevensie in the film adaptation The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe in 2005. Casting director Pippa Hall was responsible for casting William as an extra when she was filling roles for Cider with Rosie (TV) back in 1998. Seven years later, when casting for The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe in 2005, she remembered him and recommended him for the role of Peter. From the first day of auditioning for the role of Peter Pevensie in The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe it took a further eighteen months before he officially won the role and was cast.[citation needed] He reprised the role of Peter in the 2008 sequel, Prince Caspian. Moseley made a cameo appearance as Peter in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader despite his character's absence in the book which the film is based on.

Moseley will be starring in A Great Education, opposite Emma Roberts. He has joined the Stand Up to Cancer program "Change the Odds" featuring many other young actors.
