Julian Bailey(I)

Julian Bailey is a Canadian film, television, and voice actor. During his youth in Montreal, Canada, Bailey was cast in a CBC television movie before going on to lend his voice to beloved animated characters, Pepito, in the original 'Madeline' specials for HBO (with Christopher Plummer), and Mowgli, from popular anime 'The Jungle Book' series, among many others.

After graduating from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts (West), in Pasadena, California, Bailey moved to Chicago, Illinois, becoming involved in the local theatre scene and performing in a series of critically acclaimed productions. Bailey is an original member of The Piven Theatre Workshop Subscription Company, in Evanston, Illinois, where he was trained and mentored by Byrne and Joyce Piven (parents of actor, Jeremy Piven). After getting his SAG card in Chicago, Bailey returned to the Los Angeles area, where he auditioned without a booking for two years, while living out of his car; to make ends meet, Julian sold salads and sandwiches door to door at hair salons in West Hollywood and Beverly Hills and dressed up as characters for kids' parties across Southern California. Bailey eventually joined a stand up comedy workshop run by legendary comedy coach, Greg Dean, and was subsequently discovered by a talent agent at The Comedy Store on the Sunset Strip during a showcase performance.

Bailey went on to book a regular recurring role in the Lifetime Television series, 'For The People', in which he acted alongside Lea Thompson ('Back To The Future'). The show was canceled following its first season, and Bailey went back to doing various odd jobs, including the mobile lunch business and kids parties, as well as window cleaning, chauffeuring, and craft services on film sets, while still landing roles on shows like 'Judging Amy', 'Just Shoot Me', 'JAG', and 'The Young and The Restless', to name a few. A guest spot on the hit show, 'NCIS', earned Bailey fans around the world for his portrayal of a sociopathic young naval officer, and the actor would go on to appear in major motion pictures, such as 'Dark Phoenix' (with Jennifer Lawrence), and 'French Exit' (with Michelle Pheiffer). Bailey starred in the comedy feature film 'Meeting Spencer' (with Jesse Plemons and directed by the late BAFTA award winning director, Malcolm Mowbray), turned heads in the slasher flick 'He's Out There There' (with Yvonne Strahovski), and faced off with Jesse Eisenberg in the drama, 'The Hummingbird Project'. A career breakthrough came in 2021 when Bailey was cast in Amazon Prime Video's 'Three Pines', in which he starred alongside Alfred Molina, as part of a dynamic ensemble cast. The actor broke into video games with titles like 'Far Cry 5', 'Deus Ex: Mankind Divided', and 'The Division: Warlords of New York'. Notably, Bailey provides the lead voice (HQ) of the massive international hit, 'Rainbow Six: Siege', one of Ubisoft's most successful video game franchises in history, boasting more than 70 million registered players worldwide. Bailey has voiced several foreign films and television series for Netflix, including the title character for the English version of the globally popular Korean series, 'Vincenzo'.
