As a Jewish teenager in London, Isaacs endured marked antisemitism by members and supporters of the far right extremist organisation, the National Front. His parents eventually emigrated to Israel. In an interview, he stated, “There were constantly people beating us up or smashing windows. If you were ever, say, on a Jewish holiday, identifiably Jewish, there was lots of violence around. But particularly when I was 16, in 1979, the National Front were really taking hold, there were leaflets at school, and Sieg Heiling and people goose-stepping down the road and coming after us.” Following in the footsteps of his brothers (one who became a doctor, one a lawyer, and one an accountant), Isaacs studied law at Bristol University (1982–1985), but became more actively involved in the drama society, eventually acting in over 30 plays and performing each summer at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, first with Bristol University and then twice with the National Student Theatre Company. After graduating from Bristol, he went immediately to train at London’s Central School of Speech and Drama (1985–1988).
He married Emma Hewitt in 1988 and they later welcomed two children.

After portraying a priest opposite Julianne Moore and Ralph Fiennes in Neil Jordan’s acclaimed adaptation of Graham Greene’s The End of the Affair (1999), Isaacs played the charismatic honourable priest opposite Kirstie Alley in the miniseries The Last Don. He then shone as “memorable” villain, Colonel William Tavington, in Roland Emmerich’s American Revolutionary War fictional film epic The Patriot (2000). Starring opposite Mel Gibson as the film’s hero, and Heath Ledger as Gibson’s screen son, Isaacs portrays a sadistic British Army officer who kills Ledger’s character, among many other soldiers. Although his work in the film earned him comparisons to Ralph Fiennes’ portrayal of Nazi Amon Göth in Schindler’s List (1993) and mention of a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination, reaching beyond being typecast as an historical villain, Isaacs chose to play a drag queen in his next project, Sweet November (2001), a romantic comedy-drama.
There’s no way he would cut his hair like a Muggle, or dress like a Muggle.” So Isaacs suggested instead that he wear a long white wig, and a particularly ostentatious wizard-like ensemble. “In order to keep the hair straight, I had to tip my head back, so I was looking down my nose at everyone.
It is a skill he has been perfecting since a move from the northern English city of Liverpool to London with his parents and three brothers when he was 11. “Everyone took the piss out of my Liverpool accent in London, so I adopted a mockney [mock-cockney] accent,” he says.
He credits his public school education (and a Spanish-speaking one-time sister-in-law) for the fact that he speaks what I’m told is pretty credible Spanish; you can hear a sample from the BBC here. Mr. Isaacs is an avid athlete.
Jason Isaac has a dual role in the film, as Captain Hook and as Mr. Darling, Wendy’s father. Isaacs tells The Early Show co-anchor Julie Chen, “The idea is that it’s meant to be subliminal. Neverland is Wendy’s nightmare and Captain Hook is this version of her dad that she wishes he was.
