By the standards of cinema, the hero of this article joined the acting very late, but still managed to become a real star in a very short period of time. And several projects helped him in this, quickly sending him to the top of his popularity. The name of this actor is Chris Vance. Series with his participation and interesting facts from life - read about it below in the article.
Almost football player
Chris was born in 1971. He was lucky to be born in London, but in different years of his life he lived in various regions of this kingdom. The most interesting fact of his entire biography is that up to twenty-five years he was in no way connected with the cinema. Chris Vance could not even dream that he would someday become a famous actor. And all because from early childhood he showed great interest in the exact sciences, which determined his future fate: Chris goes to university, where he is educated as a civil engineer.
He is also seriously interested in football and almost gets into the national team. However, quite unexpectedly, he and his best friend decide to attend the casting of one of the starting series. Everything turns out perfectly, and Chris is invited to the shooting. He still does not believe in what is happening, but after a month of hard work, he is finally tied up with engineering.
Late star
Chris Vance begins his acting career at the age of 25. Since 2006, he has been constantly busy in series, where he gets images that are different in character and type. The producers are sure of one thing for sure - they see how charismatic this young man unknown to anyone has, and how harmoniously he combines with the camera.
Since 2008, Chris starred in the famous series “Consciousness”, where he plays the role of Dr. Jack. After dizzying success, a lull occurs, which knocks the novice actor out of a rut. For a couple of years, he has been forced to agree to episodic roles in order to somehow stay afloat. At one point, he puts up with the status of “king of the episode.” Out of desperation, Chris Vance even thinks about returning to his previous profession. Fortunately, the strength test ends: the actor is offered a small role in the famous TV series “Escape”. But still he continues to wait for the main role.
"Carrier" of all life
The success of the Luc Besson franchise at one time gave rise to rumors about the launch of the television version, which nevertheless appeared on the screens in 2012. And the key role was given to Chris Vance. "Carrier" to this day is considered his most famous work. The series tells about a young man named Frank Martin, who is involved in the transport of goods. He has to break the basic rule - do not go into the details of the order.
This leads to a series of dangerous situations with which the hero, however, copes brilliantly. The show lasted two years. Almost from the first episodes, the actor decided that he was interested in what was happening behind the scenes. Therefore, he decided to try himself as an executive producer and look at the show from the inside.
Not filming a single ...
Despite his constant employment, the actor tries to spend his free time to good use. He loves sports, and therefore his physical fitness always remains at the highest level. Chris Vance is actively involved in various social activities. So, since 2009, he constantly participates in charity, which, according to him, brings great pleasure. But the main hobby is and will be football. In 2010, Vance founded his own football school, where he acts as a coach and recruits teams for training. One of them, by the way, got into the Sydney Academy of Football. It is known that the actor was married, but the marriage did not bring the expected family happiness: the couple divorced.
Having a natural tenacity from birth, Chris Vance managed to achieve a lot. But in his life there is one creed: never stop there. So he does. Of course, this is a very multifaceted personality, which has managed to prove itself in various areas of life. Perhaps the success of all the undertakings that our hero took was in the fact that he has an incredible capacity for work, which helps him achieve his goals.
