Biography

Frank trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (R.A.D.A.),graduating in 2013. This marked the beginning of his professional journey in the world of acting.

As a child, Frank had already made his mark on the industry, playing the role of Christopher Henderson in 'Welcome to Sarajevo' (Channel 4/Miramax/Dragon Pictures) directed by Michael Winterbottom. At the tender age of sixteen, he took on the challenging role of Tom Riddle in 'Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince,' directed by David Yates.

Upon entering R.A.D.A., Frank quickly got to work, filming the role of James Papadopoulos in 'Papadopoulos & Sons' (Double M Films),directed by Marcus Markou. Upon graduating, he played Eugene Marchbanks in 'Candida' (Theatre Royal Bath),directed by Simon Godwin.

Frank's next project was Henry Coffin in Ron Howard's 'In the Heart of the Sea' (Articulated Productions). He then took on the role of Keyes in 'Viena and The Fantomes' (Lola Pictures) directed by Gerardo Naranjo, which is due for release in late 2017.

Frank's television career took off when he landed the role of series regular Shugs in Season One of 'Sense8' (Netflix) directed by Lana and Lilly Wachowski. He then filmed the pilot for A.M.C.'s 'Fear the Walking Dead', playing the lead role of Nick Clark. The show was a huge success, and he has since appeared in all three seasons.

During the hiatus between Seasons one and two, Frank filmed the lead role of Alex Harmann in 'Astral', directed by Chris Mul, due for release later this year.
