About this listen

Discover the remarkable life of Alan Rickman...
Alan Rickman was one of Britain’s most beloved actors. His portrayal of the cunning Hans Gruber in the 1988 blockbuster Die Hard set a new standard for movie villains with his perfect blend of charm and menace. Rickman then became a household name playing Professor Severus Snape in the Harry Potter series. His performance captured the layers of emotion and complexity that made Snape one of the most memorable and celebrated figures in the series. From his powerful performances in stage productions of Shakespeare and Chekhov to his appearances in popular films, Alan Rickman’s distinctive voice, smoldering good looks, and compelling presence made him an international icon.

Yet despite his fame and fortune, Rickman remained a working-class West Londoner at heart. He was intensely private and was never one to use his fame to give tell-all interviews about himself and his life. Even in death, he kept his cards close to his vest. This book delves into the life and legend of Alan Rickman, offering an in-depth look at the man behind the unforgettable roles.
