Biography

    • Andrew Gower is a British actor and singer/songwriter who is probably best known for his role as "Bonnie Prince" Charles Edward Stuart in "Outlander" and playing Nick Cutler, the vampire solicitor in season 4 of "Being Human". Andrew was born in Aintree (near Liverpool, UK) and he has been acting - and singing - since his school days.

      He joined a drama group while studying for his A-Levels and graduated from the Oxford School of Drama in 2010, winning the Spotlight Prize in July of the same year.

      His other acting projects include the lead role of Victor Frankenstein in BBC Three's live musical production of "Frankenstein's Wedding", and portraying Roman emperor Caligula in the TV mini series "A.D. - The Bible Continues". He appeared in the season 4 episode "Crocodile" of science fiction anthology series "Black Mirror" and plays Ezra Spurnrose in the fantasy-noir series "Carnival Row" on Amazon Prime. He can also be seen as Rupert Parker in the new Victorian crime drama "Miss Scarlet and The Duke".

      Andrew's stage credits include Seiffert in "Conquest of the South Pole" at the Arcola Theatre (touring to the Rose Theatre in Kingston) and Charlie in "Terror Tales" at the Hampstead Theatre. In 2016 he made his West End debut in London playing the lead role of Winston Smith in a stage adaptation of "1984". He played William/Lupin in the radio production of "The Diary of a Nobody" and Lucian in the BBC 4 Radio production "Dangerous Visions: Speak". He also gave his voice to the character Mudlark in the animated short film "The Tall Tales of Urchin".

      Andrew recorded several songs with his former band Emerson and sang live on stage during "Frankenstein's Wedding". He has written some tracks for "Humpty Fu*king Dumpty" with fellow actor Stephen Walters, and is involved in the music project The Gustaffsons.

Quotes

  • I have absolutely no preference on TV or stage. Every job I take or that I audition for all comes down to the quality of the script.
  • My tips for any budding actors would be to go out and see as much as you possibly can. Find the people you want to work with and be ready to hopefully make them want to work with you.
  • I am quite happy that I can still walk down the street every day in a pair of jogging bottoms and my woolly hat, and no one knows who I am. That's nice.
  • Yes, both 'Being Human' and 'Outlander' are known for their loyal fanbases. The beauty of both of those jobs was that the characters were very removed from me. So I've been lucky to get off scot-free, without any strange encounters. The wigs, blood, and strange onscreen faces/voices - they haven't found their way into my day-to-day life. Yet.
  • When you are playing somebody who did exist, and there is good source material on them, whether it is a biography or archives or experts, you would be stupid not to delve into them. But there is a point in the process where you leave the books alone, and instead, you focus on the script and creating your version.
