About Sacha Baron Cohen

  • Sacha Noam Baron Cohen (born 13 October 1971) is an English actor, comedian, screenwriter, director, and film producer known for creating and portraying fictional satirical characters, including Ali G, Borat Sagdiyev, BrĂĽno Gehard and Admiral General Aladeen.
  • Like his idol Peter Sellers, he adopts a variety of accents and guises for his characters.
  • He interacts with unsuspecting subjects, who don't realise they have been set up for self-revealing ridicule.
  • On these interactions, The Observer states, “his career has been built on winding people up, while keeping a deadpan face”.
  • Outside of work, Baron Cohen rarely appears out of character when giving interviews.His other work includes voicing King Julien XIII in the Madagascar film series (2005–2012) and appearing in Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006), Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007), Hugo (2011), and Les MisĂ©rables (2012).
  • He made a cameo as a BBC News Anchor in Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (2013).
  • In 2016 he played an English football hooligan brother of an MI6 spy in the comedy film Grimsby and co-starred as Time in the fantasy sequel Alice Through the Looking Glass.
  • Two years later he created and starred in Who Is America? (2018) for Showtime, his first television project since Da Ali G Show, for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Television Series Musical or Comedy. Baron Cohen was named Best Newcomer at the 1999 British Comedy Awards for The 11 O'Clock Show, and since then, he has received two BAFTA Awards for Da Ali G Show, several Emmy nominations, a nomination for an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay, and a Golden Globe for Best Actor for his work in the feature film Borat.
  • After the release of Borat, Baron Cohen said he'd retire Borat and Ali G., because the public had become too familiar with the characters.
  • After the release of BrĂĽno, he said he would retire that character.
  • At the 2012 British Comedy Awards, he received the Outstanding Achievement Award, accepting the award while reprising his Ali G character.
  • In 2013, he received the BAFTA Charlie Chaplin Britannia Award for Excellence in Comedy.In 2018, The Times named Baron Cohen among the 30 best living comedians, and in 2019 a panel on the television channel Gold included him in a list of the greatest ever British comedians.
