Conrad Kemp

Conrad Kemp’s got that kind of CV that makes most actors want to crawl back into acting class. He kicked things off in Ireland, training at the Gaiety School of Acting—yeah, the one with actual street cred. Didn’t just hang around Dublin, either. He took his chops to the UK, did his time on stage, and even landed in London’s West End for 'Stones In His Pockets.' That’s a two-hander, by the way, so there’s nowhere to hide—just pure, live-wire theater. And then, boom, screen work. Not just walk-ons. We’re talking real roles: 'The Girl' for HBO, with Toby Jones and Sienna Miller—no big deal, right? Then there’s 'Zulu,' where he’s up against heavyweights like Forest Whitaker and Orlando Bloom, and that movie literally closed the Cannes Film Festival. He’s also in 'Bram Fischer,' a film that snagged a Golden Calf, and the indie neo-Western 'Free State,' which made more noise than anyone expected. 2025’s set to be a wild year for him: he’s got a spot in the Viola Davis-led action flick 'G20,' trading lines with Jack Quaid in 'Novocaine,' and joining Gore Verbinski for 'Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die.' Not bad for a guy who once played Benvolio on Broadway in 'Romeo and Juliet'—twice, actually, in 2013 and 2014. He’s a regular at Johannesburg’s Market Theatre, too, which is sort of a big deal in South Africa. Oh, and he writes. Documentary credits for 'Chasing the Sun' and 'Peak,' plus Head of Story on 'Two Sides,' which picked up an Emmy nom. Busy guy, huh?
