William Moseley is an English actor who has a net worth of $4 million.
William Moseley is best known for playing Peter Pevensie in “The Chronicles of Narnia” film series. Cast as the eldest Pevensie sibling while still a teenager, Moseley became internationally recognizable through the blockbuster 2005 fantasy film “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.” He reprised the role in “The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian” and made a cameo appearance in “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.” After Narnia, Moseley continued acting in film and television, taking on roles in independent dramas, thrillers, fantasy projects, romantic movies, and television films. He reached another major audience as Prince Liam Henstridge on the E! drama series “The Royals,” which ran for four seasons. With a career that has stretched from child acting to international fantasy franchises and adult leading roles, Moseley has remained best known for playing heroic, royal, and romantic figures while steadily expanding into darker and more varied material.
Early Life
William Peter Moseley was born on April 27, 1987, in the Cotswolds region of Gloucestershire, England. He grew up in Sheepscombe, a village in the English countryside. His father, Peter Moseley, is a cinematographer, which gave William an early connection to the world of film and visual storytelling. His mother is Juliette Fleming. He is the eldest of three children, with a younger sister named Daisy and a younger brother named Benjamin.
Moseley attended Sheepscombe Primary School and later studied at Wycliffe College. He also spent time at Downfield Sixth Form in Stroud. His education was interrupted by the demands of filming “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe,” but he continued his studies while building the role that would define the first major phase of his career.
Early Acting Career
Moseley’s first screen experience came when he appeared as an extra in the 1998 television film “Cider with Rosie.” That small role later proved unexpectedly important. Casting director Pippa Hall, who had worked on “Cider with Rosie,” remembered him years later when casting began for “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.”
Moseley went through a long audition process for the role of Peter Pevensie. After roughly 18 months, he won the part. The role required him to portray Peter’s transformation from a protective older brother into the High King of Narnia, giving him a major dramatic and action-oriented role while still in his teens.
“The Chronicles of Narnia”
Released in 2005, “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” became a major international success. Based on the beloved C.S. Lewis novel, the film starred Moseley alongside Georgie Henley, Skandar Keynes, and Anna Popplewell as the four Pevensie children. Moseley played Peter as brave, conflicted, and protective, helping ground the film’s fantasy elements in a family story.
The movie was a box-office hit and made Moseley known to audiences around the world. His performance earned award recognition, including nominations from the Saturn Awards and Young Artist Awards. He later won a Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Award in the United Kingdom for his work in the franchise.
Moseley returned as Peter in the 2008 sequel “The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.” The film presented an older, more battle-tested version of the character and gave Moseley more action-driven material. He also made a cameo as Peter in the 2010 sequel “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.”

Film Career After Narnia
After leaving Narnia behind, Moseley worked to build a varied film résumé. He appeared in projects including “Run,” “The Silent Mountain,” “Margarita with a Straw,” “Friend Request,” “Carrie Pilby,” “The Veil,” “The Little Mermaid,” and “In Like Flynn.”
He also took on action and thriller roles, including “The Courier,” “Medieval,” “On the Line,” and “Murder Company.” In “Raven’s Hollow,” he played a young Edgar Allan Poe, giving him a darker literary role far removed from the bright fantasy heroism of Peter Pevensie. He later played Davy Crockett in “The Ballad of Davy Crockett,” continuing his pattern of taking on period, adventure, and heroic characters.
“The Royals”
Moseley’s most prominent television role came in 2015 when he starred as Prince Liam Henstridge on “The Royals.” The E! drama imagined a fictional modern British royal family filled with scandal, romance, betrayal, and power struggles. Moseley played the younger prince suddenly pushed closer to the throne, opposite Elizabeth Hurley as Queen Helena and Alexandra Park as Princess Eleanor.
“The Royals” ran for four seasons from 2015 to 2018 and gave Moseley a new fan base beyond the Narnia audience. The role played off his natural association with royal and princely characters, but in a more adult, contemporary, soap-driven setting.
