Joshua Colin M. Herdman[1] (born 9 September 1987)[1] is an English actor and mixed martial artist, best known for playing Gregory Goyle in the Harry Potter film series.
[3] Josh and his father Martin Herdman were involved in a motorcycle accident on 15 September 2015 in Hounslow while navigating a small roundabout.
The police were reportedly unable to take them to a hospital in their cars due to the two men's injuries and a supposed lack of insurance coverage if something were to happen while en route.
At age 13, he was cast as Gregory Goyle, a sidekick of villain Draco Malfoy, in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001).
[2] After five years of practising jiujitsu, Herdman began his MMA career on 23 April 2016 in Romford with a decision win over Janusz Walachowski.
