London: Ewan McGregor, who recently turned 40 and became a father for the fourth time, says that he fondly remembers his days of being “a maniac on the booze”.
The Perth-born Scot had parents who were both teachers. He was allowed to leave school early to pursue his ambitions of being an actor like his uncle Denis Lawson. McGregor moved to London in his teens to study drama at Guildhall.
He was signed up to appear in Dennis Potter’s ‘Lipstick On Your Collar’ while he was there. It brought him to the attention of Danny Boyle, who cast him in ‘Shallow Grave’ and later ‘Trainspotting’. Released in 1996, ‘Trainspotting’ transformed him into a poster boy of the Britpop era.
