Booth is severely dyslexic and found it "very hard" to read or write up until the age of ten; he remains "a really slow reader".{{cite web|url=http://www.interviewmagazine.com/film/14-faces-of-2014-douglas-booth|title=The Movie Star|work=Interview|access-date=14 February 2014|date=2013-12-11}} He struggled at school, "having to put in double or triple the amount of effort as everyone else" but said the condition made him "more resilient in every sense".{{cite web |url=http://www.literacytrust.org.uk/assets/0001/3999/Example_paper.pdf |title=First News |date=June 2012 |website=Literacytrust.org.uk |access-date=2015-12-25 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131203033805/http://www.literacytrust.org.uk/assets/0001/3999/Example_paper.pdf |archive-date=3 December 2013 |url-status=dead}} He played the trumpet as a child.{{cite web|url=http://www.mrblasberg.com/2013/03|title=March 2013 archive|publisher=Mr Blasberg|access-date=14 February 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140209225535/http://www.mrblasberg.com/2013/03/|archive-date=9 February 2014|df=dmy-all}} Booth took his first major roles in musicals presented by the Sackville Children's Choir at the Stag Theatre in Sevenoaks. He played Leader of the Rats in Rats! The Musical, and Uncle Andrew in The Magician's Nephew. He further developed his interest in drama at the age of twelve, after starring in a school production of Agamemnon: "I found myself feeling really engaged for the first time ... I thought, 'I rather like being the centre of attention. This is where I want to be.'"{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMMhAnYkmAE |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211215/yMMhAnYkmAE |archive-date=2021-12-15 |url-status=live|title=Douglas Booth on Becoming an Actor|publisher=YouTube|date=1 April 2012|access-date=14 February 2014}}{{cbignore}}{{cite web|url=http://www.vogue.co.uk/blogs/the-culture-edit/2012/01/douglas-booth-interview---romeo-and-juliet|title=Douglas Booth Interview – Romeo and Juliet Movie|work=Vogue|date=3 January 2012 |location=UK|access-date=24 July 2012}} By the age of thirteen, he was involved with the National Youth Theatre and the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.{{cite web|url=https://www.standard.co.uk/lifestyle/fashion/douglas-booth-the-new-boy-at-burberry-6792982.html|title=Douglas Booth: the new boy at Burberry|work=London Evening Standard|date=22 October 2009|access-date=14 February 2014}}{{cite web|last=Randall|first=Lee|url=http://www.scotsman.com/lifestyle/interview-douglas-booth-actor-1-2003635|title=Interview: Douglas Booth, actor|work=The Scotsman|date=12 December 2011|access-date=14 February 2014}}

Career
=Early work=
Booth's first professional role was in the children's adventure film From Time to Time (2009), directed by Julian Fellowes and starring Maggie Smith and Timothy Spall. Following the film's release, Booth signed to the UTA talent agency for American-based representation.{{cite news|url=https://variety.com/2009/scene/people-news/douglas-booth-1118008748/ |title=Douglas Booth |work=Variety |date=16 September 2009 |access-date=14 February 2014}} He then had a minor role as Prince Eustace in the Channel 4 miniseries The Pillars of the Earth (2010), a medieval saga filmed in Budapest with Ian McShane and Donald Sutherland. Also in 2009 and 2010, Booth modelled in several Mario Testino-shot campaigns for the luxury fashion label Burberry; he starred in the Autumn 2009 campaign with Emma Watson, the Autumn 2010 campaign with Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and the Burberry Sport fragrance campaign with Lily Donaldson.{{cite web|url= http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/fashion/article-23759885-a-new-boy-at-burberry-the-mighty-douglas-booth.do|title= Douglas Booth: the new boy at Burberry|author= Andy Barker|date= 23 October 2009|work= London Evening Standard|access-date= 6 September 2010|url-status= dead|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20100914233202/http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/fashion/article-23759885-a-new-boy-at-burberry-the-mighty-douglas-booth.do|archive-date= 14 September 2010|df= dmy-all}}

Booth rose to prominence in 2010 following his performance as the pop star Boy George in the BBC Two drama Worried About the Boy.{{cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/7725840/Worried-About-the-Boy-BBC-Two-Review.html|title=Worried About the Boy, BBC Two, Review|first=Ceri|last=Radford|date=17 May 2010|work=The Daily Telegraph|access-date=6 September 2010|location=London}} He underwent a physical transformation for the role, shaving off his eyebrows and wearing heavy makeup. Booth met Boy George during filming, with the singer remarking: "He just gets it. There's something about him that reminds me of me when I was 17."{{cite web|first=Fiona|last=Wickham|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/tv/2010/05/boy-george-what-i-thought-of-w.shtml|title=Boy George: What I thought of Worried About The Boy|publisher=BBC|access-date=14 February 2014}} Writing in The Daily Telegraph, Ceri Radford said Booth delivered a "mesmerising" performance: "He offered a convincing portrayal of O'Dowd as a beautiful young man who oozed ambiguous sex appeal and protected his feelings with a carapace of prickly wit." Mike Higgins of The Independent declared Booth "a discovery": "Moving, witty, he also got the singer's wheezy enunciation down pat."{{cite news|first=Mike|last=Higgins|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/reviews/worried-about-the-boy-bbc2-brroyal-wedding-bbc2brashes-to-ashes-bbc1-1980354.html|title=Worried About the Boy, BBC2 Royal Wedding, BBC2Ashes to Ashes, BBC1|work=The Independent|date=23 May 2010|access-date=14 February 2014|location=London, UK}}
Booth next played the role of Pip in the BBC One adaptation of Dickens' Great Expectations (2011), alongside Gillian Anderson and Ray Winstone. Broadcast over the Christmas period, the miniseries was a huge ratings success.{{cite news|work=The Daily Telegraph|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/bbc/8981287/Great-Expectations-meets-BBCs-high-hopes-thanks-to-young-actor-Douglas-Booth.html|title=Great Expectations meets BBC's high hopes thanks to young actor Douglas Booth|date=28 December 2011|access-date=14 February 2014|location=London, England}} Anne Billson of The Telegraph felt it was a misstep to cast someone "so distractingly lovely" in the role of Pip: "It's not that Douglas Booth was bad, it's just that one can't imagine Dickens ever intended Pip to be more beautiful than Estella, who, after all, has been brought up to break men's hearts."{{cite news|author=TV and Radio|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/8975722/Great-Expectations-BBC-One-review.html|title=Great Expectations, BBC One, review|work=The Daily Telegraph|date= 27 December 2011|access-date=14 February 2014|location=London, UK}} Mike Hale of The New York Times dismissed Booth as "a CW-style actor whose exceptionally pretty face doesn't convey much beyond puzzlement and petulance."{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/31/arts/television/gillian-anderson-in-great-expectations-on-pbs.html|work=The New York Times|first=Mike|last=Hale|title=Gillian Anderson in 'Great Expectations' on PBS|date=30 March 2012}} Betsy Sharkey of the Los Angeles Times, however, found the actor's performance "haunting"{{cite news|url=https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/la-xpm-2013-oct-10-la-et-mn-romeo-and-juliet-review-story.html|title=Review: 'Romeo & Juliet' treads carefully where it should blaze|work=Los Angeles Times|date=10 October 2013|access-date=14 February 2014|first1=Betsy|last1=Sharkey}} while Emma Jones of The Huffington Post dismissed the "debate over the extreme prettiness of Douglas Booth", arguing that "Booth's beauty is only a backdrop to Pip's naivety."{{cite web|url=http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/emma-jones/great-expectations-christmas-tv-sleeper-hit_b_1176118.html|title=Emma Jones: Great Expectations – the Sleeper Hit of Christmas TV|work=Huffington Post|date=30 December 2011|access-date=14 February 2014}}
Also in 2011, Booth appeared in the BBC film Christopher and His Kind, which explored novelist Christopher Isherwood's formative years in 1930s Berlin. He played Heinz, a German street-sweeper who became the lover of Matt Smith's Isherwood.{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/proginfo/tv/2011/wk12/feature_christopher_matt_smith.shtml|title=Press Office – Network TV Programme Information BBC Week 12 Christopher And His Kind feature – interview with Matt Smith|publisher=BBC|access-date=14 February 2014}}
In 2012, Booth starred opposite Miley Cyrus and Demi Moore in the teen drama LOL. He witnessed the paparazzi interest surrounding co-star Cyrus during filming: "It was bizarre and, interestingly, not at all glamorous."{{cite news|first=Eva|last=Wiseman|url=https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/2011/dec/18/fashion-douglas-booth-lines-of-beauty|title=Douglas Booth: Lines of beauty|work=The Observer|access-date=14 February 2014|date=2011-12-18}} Filmed in 2010, when Booth was seventeen, the movie received a very limited theatrical release and unfavourable reviews.{{cite news|url=http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/entertainmentnewsbuzz/2012/04/lol-miley-cyrus-lionsgate.html|title=OMG! Miley Cyrus' 'LOL' gets no love from Lionsgate|work=Los Angeles Times|date=18 April 2012|access-date=14 February 2014}} Later that year, Booth read selected extracts from David Copperfield as part of Sky Arts's In Love With Dickens documentary; other contributors included Simon Callow and Miriam Margolyes.{{cite web|url=http://www.dickens2012.org/event/love-dickens|title=In Love With Dickens|publisher=Dickens 2012|date=21 February 2012|access-date=14 February 2014}}
In 2013, Booth starred opposite Hailee Steinfeld in Carlo Carlei's film adaptation of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.{{cite web|url=https://collider.com/downton-abbey-season-4-5-julian-fellowes-romeo-juliet-interview/ |title=Julian Fellowes Talks Romeo & Juliet, Downton Abbey Seasons 4 and 5, Gilded Age, and More |website=Collider |date=20 November 2013 |access-date=14 February 2014}} Betsy Sharkey of the Los Angeles Times praised Booth's memorable performance: "It's not so much that he makes a great Romeo; frankly DiCaprio's was better in Luhrmann's version, as was Leonard Whiting in Zeffirelli's … But it has been a while since a camera has so loved a face ... If anything, the movies in general are too intent on reducing Booth to that singular feature, when he is actually a fine actor." R. Kurt Osenlund of Slant felt that Booth gives "a rather fantastic breakthrough performance, offering a poignant interpretation of one of literature's greatest lovers."{{cite web|url=https://www.slantmagazine.com/film/review/romeo-and-juliet|title=Romeo and Juliet | Film Review|work=Slant Magazine|date=10 October 2013 |access-date=14 February 2014}} Mick LaSalle of the San Francisco Chronicle bemoaned the poor casting of Steinfeld: "And this is especially a shame because Douglas Booth as Romeo is quite good and could have been better, if only he had someone to play off of."{{cite news|first=Mick|last=LaSalle|author-link=Mick LaSalle|url=http://www.sfgate.com/movies/article/Romeo-and-Juliet-review-A-blight-on-the-Bard-4885602.php|title='Romeo and Juliet' review: A blight on the Bard|work=San Francisco Chronicle|date=27 December 2013|access-date=14 February 2014}} Todd McCarthy of The Hollywood Reporter remarked that Booth "seems to have a grasp of what he's saying and behaves in credibly laddish fashion ... but Booth's vocal range is very narrow, and he speaks in a monotone."{{cite news|url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movie/romeo-juliet/review/643756|title=Romeo & Juliet: Film Review|work=The Hollywood Reporter|date=8 October 2013|access-date=14 February 2014|first=Todd|last=McCarthy|author-link=Todd McCarthy}} Claudia Puig of USA Today found Booth "more skilled" than Steinfeld "in the passionate intonation department"{{cite news|url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/movies/2013/10/10/romeo-and-juliet-review/2870501|title=Oh 'Romeo,' the Bard himself would be bored by remake|work=USA Today |date=10 October 2013|access-date=14 February 2014|first1=Claudia|last1=Puig}} while The Independent's Geoffrey MacNab asserted that Booth "shows a certain star quality."{{cite news|first=Geoffrey|last=Macnab|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/reviews/film-review-julian-fellowes-romeo-and-juliet-is-thoroughly-lacking-in-any-emotional-oomph-8872487.html|title=Film review: Julian Fellowes' Romeo and Juliet is thoroughly lacking in any emotional oomph|work=The Independent|date=10 October 2013|access-date=14 February 2014|location=London}}

He knows who he is. He doesn't get intimidated, doesn't hold back, and is generally fearless."{{cite web|url=http://www.vmagazine.com/site/content/579/new-school-romeo|title=V Magazine/New School Romeo|publisher=Vmagazine.com|access-date=14 February 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131203043625/http://www.vmagazine.com/site/content/579/new-school-romeo|archive-date=3 December 2013|df=dmy-all}}
In September 2014, Booth starred alongside Sam Claflin, Max Irons and Freddie Fox in the black comedy The Riot Club, directed by Lone Scherfig. Based on the stage play by Laura Wade, the ensemble piece centres around ten members of an exclusive Oxford University dining club known as The Riot Club, based on the real-life Bullingdon Club.{{cite web|url=http://www.flaunt.com/people/douglas-booth|title=Flaunt Magazine | People: Douglas Booth|work=Flaunt|access-date=14 February 2014}} Booth made "friends for life" during the film shoot, and has said of the characters: "When you meet these sort of guys, they're always so charming. It's almost more discomfiting for the audience to be charmed by them, to like them a lot, and to see how far they'll go with them." In February 2015, he appeared in The Wachowskis' science-fiction film Jupiter Ascending, starring Mila Kunis, Channing Tatum and Eddie Redmayne. "They're just the most original people," Booth has said of the Wachowskis. "They've created something very exciting and special and bonkers."{{cite news|first=Holly|last=Williams |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/douglas-booth-new-romantic-plays-the-heartthrob-in-new-film-adaptation-of-romeo--juliet-8864889.html|title=Douglas Booth: New romantic plays the heartthrob in new film adaptation of Romeo & Juliet – Features|work=The Independent|date=8 October 2013|access-date=14 February 2014|location=London, UK}} He played Mr. Bingley in Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (2016), an adaptation of the novel of the same name by Seth Grahame-Smith.{{cite web|url=https://deadline.com/2014/09/douglas-booth-pride-and-prejudice-and-zombies-828648/|title='Noah's Douglas Booth Joins 'Pride And Prejudice And Zombies'|access-date=13 March 2015|website=Deadline Hollywood|date=3 September 2014}}{{cite web|first=Sarah|last=Moran|url=https://screenrant.com/pride-prejudice-zombies-movie-casting-images|title='Pride and Prejudice and Zombies' First Look Image & Details|date=31 October 2014|access-date=13 March 2015|work=Screen Rant}}
