The star began his career in the entertainment industry with The Cut and EastEnders: E20, a spin-off of the British drama EastEnders. The role required him to learn how to dance and at the time he confessed that it was really stressful.
He continued adding titles to his filmography over the years, and one of the most successful was Hollyoaks, where he appeared as one of the main characters, playing Neil Cooper, one of the show’s six new characters.
However, his jump to international fame didn’t come until he joined the series Doctor Who in 2018, where he portrayed Ryan Sinclair and was the lead until 2021, appearing in 22 episodes.
