Charles Ben D. Carrick (born 25 June 1986) is an English actor. He made his feature film debut in Molly Maxwell (2013). In 2016, he won a Leo Award for his performance in the film The Devout (2015).[1]
Carrick was born on 25 June 1986 in Newcastle upon Tyne, and grew up in the suburb of Jesmond. He attended the Royal Grammar School.[2] He was 13 when he discovered acting through a school production of A Midsummer Night's Dream. After completing his A Levels, Carrick worked at a local bar for six months to save up for his studies at the Vancouver Film School, graduating in 2006. He was inspired by his grandfather, who temporarily worked in Canada; Carrick's mother had been born in Montreal before the family returned to Tyneside.[3]
