Hoult, the third of four children,[2] was born in Wokingham, Berkshire to Glenis, a piano teacher, and Roger Hoult, a pilot for British Airways.[3] His siblings are James, Rosie and Clarista.[4] He trained at the Sylvia Young Theatre School in London and made his film début as Bobby in the Boxer Films/Fox Searchlight picture Intimate Relations.
