Callum Fuller(I)
- Actor
Callum Myles Fuller was in Dumfries, Scotland. In
his youth he was described as a 'volatile' child, open to suggestion
and many deeming his fierey red hair as the cause. Throughout his early
years he was an expressive sort, being known and praised as an
'entertainer' by his main school teachers. Indeed it was his primary
school teacher that arranged for him to be auditioned by the Dundee Rep
Theatre for the traveling production of 'Men Should Weep' that had
been undertaken in 1997.
Through the audition, Callum claimed the part of a main character for the show. Here Callum starred alongside the likes of Vincent Friell, who had just filmed a major role opposite Scottish actors Ewan McGregor and Kelly Macdonald, others including Robert Carlysle, James Cosmo and Ewan Bremner, in the award winning Scottish film 'Trainspotting' by future Oscar winning director Danny Boyle. The finally of the show was the end of Callums' acting career...until the beginning of 2009.
After completing an honours degree at the University of Dundee in late 2008, Callum returned to acting. In early 2009, he became involved in short film and was subsequently cast as in the multi-award winning Scottish independent feature film 'Kirk'. 'Kirk' was a success, being awarded 'Best Independent Feature at the Manchester International Festival of Fantastic Films' with 'Best Director' at the same festival. In addition, 'Kirk' director Michael Ferns was awarded best director at the 'Scottish BAFTA: New Talent Awards'.
Between August 2009 and September 2010, Callum returned to academia to successfully complete an MSc at the University of Edinburgh, listed as 'one of the top twenty Universities in the world'. Since completing academia, Callum has yet again returned to acting and completed several short films to date.
Despite his academic background, Callum is passionate about acting. He believes that his passion and dedication to acting will prevail.
