Navigating Hollywood

Philip Winchester takes us behind the scenes of his remarkable journey from Montana to the Royal Shakespeare Company to Hollywood, revealing how his mother's brave decision to send him to London drama school launched a career spanning classical theater, action-packed television, and movies.

On the adrenaline-fueled set of "Strike Back," Winchester performed jaw-dropping stunts—stepping off helicopters onto moving trains. His next challenge came in mastering the rapid-fire "legalese" of Dick Wolf's courtroom dramas, delivering eight pages of complex dialogue daily. Winchester also opens up about the unexpected spiritual awakening he experienced after a chance encounter on the London Underground—a moment that completely transformed his understanding of fatherhood and purpose.
