## Early life

Rush was born on 6 July 1951 in Toowoomba, Queensland, the son of Merle (Bischof), a department store sales assistant, and Roy Baden Rush, an accountant for the Royal Australian Air Force. His father was of English, Irish, and Scottish ancestry, and his mother was of German descent. He has an older sister. His parents divorced when he was five, and his mother subsequently took him to live with her parents in suburban Brisbane. Before he began his acting career, Rush attended Everton Park State High School, and graduated from the University of Queensland with a bachelor's degree in Arts. While at university, he was talent-spotted by Queensland Theatre Company (QTC) in Brisbane. Rush began his career with QTC in 1971, appearing in 17 productions.

In 1975, Rush went to Paris for two years and studied mime, movement and theatre at L'École Internationale de Théâtre Jacques Lecoq, before returning to resume his stage career with QTC. In 1979, he shared an apartment with actor Mel Gibson for four months while they co-starred in a stage production of *Waiting for Godot*.

## Career

### 1980s

Rush made his theatre debut in the QTC's production of *Wrong Side of the Moon*. He worked with the QTC for four years, appearing in roles ranging across classical plays and pantomime, from *Juno and the Paycock* to *Hamlet on Ice*. Following these, Rush left for Paris where he studied further.

Rush's acting credits include William Shakespeare's plays *The Winter's Tale* (with the State Theatre Company of South Australia in 1987 at The Playhouse in Adelaide) and *Troilus and Cressida* (at the Old Museum Building in 1989). He also appeared in an ongoing production of Oscar Wilde's *The Importance of Being Earnest* as John Worthing (Ernest) (in which his wife, Jane Menelaus, appeared as Gwendolen).

Rush made his film debut in the Australian film *Hoodwink* in 1981. His next film was Gillian Armstrong's *Starstruck*, the following year.

### 1990s

In the 1990s Rush appeared in small roles on television dramas, including a role as a dentist in a 1993 episode of the British television series *Lovejoy*. Rush also continued his work in theatre.

Rush made his film breakthrough with his performance in 1996 with *Shine*, for which he won the Academy Award for Best Actor. That same year, James L. Brooks flew him to Los Angeles to audition for the part of Simon Bishop in *As Good as It Gets* and offered him the role, but Rush declined it (it went to Greg Kinnear).

In September 1998, Rush played the title role in the Beaumarchais play *The Marriage of Figaro* for the QTC. This was the opening production of the Optus Playhouse at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre at South Bank in Brisbane. A pun on Rush's name (and the circumstances) was used in the opening prologue of the play with the comment that the "Optus Playhouse was opening with a Rush".

In 1998, he appeared in three major films: *Les Misérables*, *Elizabeth*, and *Shakespeare in Love*. He received his second Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor for the last film. In *Les Miserables* Rush played Javert opposite Liam Neeson as Jean Valjean. In *Elizabeth*, Rush portrayed Sir Francis Walsingham alongside fellow Australian Cate Blanchett as Queen Elizabeth I.

Rush's career continued at a fast pace, with nine films released from 2001 to 2003. In 2002, Rush played Leon Trotsky to Salma Hayek's Frida Kahlo in Julie Taymor's *Frida*.

In the article she wrote about her determination to make the movie and praises Rush for agreeing to act in the film.

Rush appeared in several films released in 2003. He played Superintendent Francis Hare in *Ned Kelly* with Heath Ledger, Orlando Bloom and Naomi Watts. He voiced Nigel the brown pelican in the Disney/Pixar animated film *Finding Nemo*.

It was a critical and financial success earning five Academy Award nominations including for Best Picture. In 2017, the film was named the 16th "Best Film of the 21st Century So Far" by *The New York Times*.

In 2006, Rush hosted the Australian Film Institute Awards for the Nine Network. He was the master of ceremonies again at the 2007 AFI Awards.

### 2010s

In 2010, Rush returned to the stage, playing Man in Chair in *The Drowsy Chaperone* on its Australian tour. That same year he also played speech and language therapist Lionel Logue in Tom Hooper's historical drama *The King's Speech* concerning King George VI, played by Colin Firth, and his speech impediment. The film focuses on their unlikely friendship as they work together after Edward VIII played by Guy Pearce abdicates the throne. The new king relies on Logue to help him make his first wartime radio broadcast upon Britain's declaration of war on Germany in 1939. The film also starred Helena Bonham Carter as Queen Elizabeth, and Jennifer Ehle as Myrtle Logue. The film was a financial success earning $424 million at the box office.

## Personal life

Since 1988, Rush has been married to actress Jane Menelaus, with whom he has a daughter and a son. Rush lives in Melbourne, and spent several years in Castlemaine, Victoria.

## Defamation case

On 30 November 2017, the Sydney tabloid newspaper *The Daily Telegraph* published a front-page article alleging that Rush engaged in "inappropriate behaviour" onstage with a co-star during the Sydney Theatre Company's 2015 production of *King Lear*. The story contained no corroboration for the allegations, though the STC divulged to the *Telegraph* that they had received a complaint about alleged sexual harassment by Rush. Eryn Jean Norvill, who had starred as Cordelia alongside Rush, alleged that the actor had touched her inappropriately without her consent. The *Telegraph*'s story was picked up by various newspapers in Australia but not by the Melbourne *Herald Sun* because of concerns that the *Telegraph* was "running with a yarn which is highly libellous". Rush denied the allegations and, on 8 December 2017, announced that he had filed a defamation suit with the Federal Court of Australia, charging that the *Telegraph* "made false, pejorative and demeaning claims, splattering them with unrelenting bombast on its front pages". In an affidavit, Rush stated that as a result of the allegations, he had been suffering from anxiety, insomnia and loss of appetite, and felt that "his worth to the theatre and film industry is now irreparably damaged".

The trial was concluded on 9 November 2018. On 11 April 2019, the judge ruled in favour of Rush, awarding him $850,000. In his written statement defending his ruling, Justice Wigney said that none of Norvill's claims were proven, due to her evidence being "not credible or reliable and contradicted by other members of the cast", and that Rush's evidence was overwhelming. He also criticised the *Telegraph* for "recklessly irresponsible pieces of sensationalist journalism of the very worst kind". A month later, the *Telegraph* was ordered to pay Rush an extended judgement of $2.87m. *The Telegraph* motioned to appeal but the judgement was upheld.

### Further allegations

On 16 December 2018, *The New York Times* published an interview with Australian actress Yael Stone, who accused Rush of sexual misconduct during the production of a theatre adaptation of *Diary of a Madman* in 2010 and 2011. Among the allegations Stone made in interviews to the *Times* and ABC were incidents where Rush angled a hand mirror over a shower cubicle to observe Yael naked, sent her erotic text messages and danced naked in front of her in her dressing room. Rush responded in a statement to the *Times* through his attorneys, saying that Stone's allegations were "incorrect and in some instances have been taken completely out of context. However, clearly Yael has been upset on occasion by the spirited enthusiasm I generally bring to my work. I sincerely and deeply regret if I have caused her any distress. This, most certainly, has never been my intention."
