Asa Bopp Farr Butterfield [[note]] (pronounced /'eɪsə bɑːpː fɑɹ bə'tɝɹ.fiːld/) [[/note]], born Asa Maxwell Thornton Farr Butterfield, born 1 April 1997 in Islington, England, is an English actor and esports player best known for portraying Bruno in ''Literature/TheBoyInTheStripedPyjamas'', the [[CharacterTitle eponymous hero]] of ''Film/{{Hugo}}'', and Ender Wiggin in the film adaptation of ''Film/EndersGame''.

Butterfield was still attending regular school like any other boy and would put his career on temporary hold from the Autumn of 2008, when he began secondary school, with a supporting role in ''[[Film/TheWolfman2010 The Wolfman]]'' followed by the lead in the sequel to ''Film/NannyMcPhee'' released in 2010. In these films he played alongside people like Sir Creator/AnthonyHopkins and Creator/EmmaThompson, and his own real stardom began. Following this he got the lead in Creator/MartinScorsese's adaptation ''Film/{{Hugo}}'', leading the renowned cast comprising Sir Creator/BenKingsley, Creator/SachaBaronCohen, and Creator/ChloeGraceMoretz. He also played the titular Ender Wiggin in ''Film/EndersGame'', again heading up the AllStarCast, including SciFi veteran Creator/HarrisonFord.
After finishing up ''Film/EndersGame'', Butterfield worked on several other films, including ''Film/MissPeregrinesHomeForPeculiarChildren'', ''Film/TheSpaceBetweenUs'', and ''Film/SlaughterhouseRulez''. He most recently appeared in ''Series/SexEducation'', where he plays the protagonist Otis Milburn.
