Joseph Millson was born in Berkshire, and trained at the Rose Bruford College of Speech and Drama. After tackling a number of plays, he made his television debut in a 1998 episode of In Exile. The following year, Millson won a regular role in the medical drama Peak Practice. He also married actress Caroline Fitzgerald, with whom he would have a daughter, Jessica, and a son, Gabriel. After the turn of the century, Millson continued to appear regularly on the stage, including in the West End and with the Royal Shakespeare Company. On television, he could be seen in shows like EastEnders and Talk To Me; amongst his occasional movie roles was the James Bond film Casino Royale. In 2007, Millson joined the cast of the Doctor Who spin-off The Sarah Jane Adventures playing Alan, father to Yasmin Paige's intrepid Maria Jackson. However, when Paige opted to leave the show to concentrate on her education, Alan was also written out. As a result, Millson's last appearance came in 2008's The Mark Of The Berserker.

Millson would subsequently take regular or recurring roles in programmes such as Campus, Holby City, 24: Live Another Day and The Last Kingdom. A diverse array of movie credits included romantic comedy I Give It A Year, thriller All The Devil's Men, and action sequel Angel Has Fallen, while 2013's Dead Of The Nite saw him not only act but also serve as an executive producer. With Millson and his wife having divorced in 2011, he married his Holby City co-star Sarah-Jane Potts in 2013. During the Twenties, he exercised new creative muscles. Millson's memoir, Work... And Other Four Letter Words: Everything You've Never Heard About Becoming An Actor, was published by Urwin Press in 2021. He wrote, produced and starred in the short film Care, and he was both a writer and actor for the mini-series Colosseum. Millson could also be seen in shows like Endeavour and Moon Knight, plus the biopic Creation Stories. He renewed his association with the worlds of Doctor Who by playing various characters in audio dramas from Big Finish Productions, starting with 2021's Dalek Universe 3, which featured the Tenth Doctor.
