Brenton Thwaites: movies, biography and personal life of a guy from the Blue Lagoon

This lover knows every fan of the film "Blue Lagoon", which was released on television in 2012. With its attractive appearance, Brenton Thwaites conquered more than one female heart. Even the actor became more popular after the release of the films "Oculus" (2013) and "Maleficent" (2014). And someone calls him a cute pirate, because the actor appeared in the famous franchise “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” (2017), where the actor with a capital letter Johnny Depp became his colleague on the set.

All this suggests that Brenton is now at the peak of his popularity and relevance. Not far off is a new project in which the guy got the main role. All the latest news and achievements of a handsome actor can be found in this article.

Biography and early years

Brenton Thwaites was born on August 10, 1989 in Australia, in the city of Cairns. His parents are Peter and Fiona Thwaites. The guy has a sister, Stacy. In childhood, the boy simply loved to watch action films, where the main character saves weak people and kills bad guys. Therefore, he always dreamed of becoming one of them - a policeman or a fireman. But nevertheless, he decides what he will play such heroes on television, because the actor had acting talent. At 16, he still managed to try himself as an actor for the first time: he played in the theatrical production of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet."

And in 2006, Brenton entered the Queensland University of Technology, where he excitedly studied acting, not forgetting to constantly appear at auditions.

Career start and first roles

The first film role was not long in coming: after graduating from university in 2010, Brenton Thwaites starred in the thriller Power Over You. And next year, four more projects were added to his film portfolio:

1. Short "The Executioner" - the role of Max Peterson.
2. "Sea Patrol" (1st episode) - the role of Leith Scarpia.
3. "Sliding" (10 episodes) - the role of Luke Gallagher.
4. "Home and the Way" (2011-2012, 57 episodes) - the role of Sam. It is interesting that Brenton got one of the leading roles in this film, but this work in the film did not bring the actor significant success.

In 2012, his first finest hour came to Thwaites - shooting in the famous Blue Lagoon.

Firstly, this is the first work of a young actor in Hollywood, and secondly, the main popularity came to Brenton precisely because of this film. In 2012, the comedy film "Take Care of Your Feet" was released, where the guy got the role of Mark.

Gaining momentum

But the picture "Oculus" (2013) made the actor a real horror star. The project brought Brenton such fame that in Hollywood they began to involuntarily think about the birth of a new star of a big movie. Following the actor, suggestions rained down, and many were very worthwhile:

1. "Maleficent" (2014) - the role of Prince Philip.
2. "Young Blood" (2014) - the role of JR.
3. "Ride" (2014) - the role of Angelo.
4. "Initiate" (2014) - the role of Jonas.
5. “The Signal" (2014) - the role of Nick.

The following films with Brenton Thwaites did not bring him special privileges, although the actor had some hopes for these paintings:

1. "Ruben Guthrie" (2015) - the role of the Chet.
2. "Gods of Egypt" (2016) - the role of Beck.

It is also worth noting that the actor was still noticed and appreciated talent - in 2014, Brenton was awarded three awards:

1. "New Talent" - for the painting "Initiate".
2. "Rising Star" - at the Hawaii Film Festival.
3. Breakthrough of the Year at the GQ Men of the Year ceremony.

Next, Brenton receives an offer to star in Pirates of the Caribbean, but the role has long been kept secret. The Australian got the character of Henry Turner - the son of Will Turner, who, as you know, was played by Orlando Bloom. But even here the actor did not find much success.

But the young actor is only just beginning. For two years in advance, Brenton Thwaites has a shooting schedule for various projects. In 2018, five works of the Australian actor are expected to be released immediately:

1. A Violent Separation (2018) - the role of Norman Young.
2. "Interview with God" (2018) - the role of Paul Asher.
3. "Office Uprising" (2018) - the role of Desmond.
4. Ghosts of War (2018) - the role of Chris.
5. The series "Titans" (2018) - the role of Dick Grayson.

Personal life

Brenton Thwaites never liked to advertise his relationships or novels. We only know that for a couple of months he met a partner in the “Blue Lagoon” Indiana Evans. And in 2015, on the set of "Pirates", the actor met his current lover - Chloe Pacey. And in March 2016, her beloved girl gave Brenton a daughter, Birdie. By the way, the relationship of the guys is still not registered by marriage.
