Julian Bailey, a talented Canadian film, television, and voice actor, began his career in Montreal, Canada, where he was cast in a CBC television movie during his youth. He then lent his voice to beloved animated characters, including Pepito in the original 'Madeline' specials for HBO and Mowgli in the popular anime 'The Jungle Book' series.
After graduating from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Pasadena, California, Bailey moved to Chicago, Illinois, where he became involved in the local theatre scene and performed in a series of critically acclaimed productions. He was an original member of The Piven Theatre Workshop Subscription Company, where he was trained and mentored by Byrne and Joyce Piven.
After obtaining his SAG card in Chicago, Bailey returned to the Los Angeles area, where he auditioned without a booking for two years, living out of his car. To make ends meet, he sold salads and sandwiches door-to-door at hair salons in West Hollywood and Beverly Hills, and dressed up as characters for kids' parties across Southern California.
Bailey eventually joined a stand-up comedy workshop run by legendary comedy coach Greg Dean and was discovered by a talent agent at The Comedy Store on the Sunset Strip. He went on to book a regular recurring role in the Lifetime Television series 'For The People', alongside Lea Thompson.
The show was canceled after its first season, and Bailey returned to doing various odd jobs, including the mobile lunch business, kids' parties, window cleaning, chauffeuring, and craft services on film sets. He continued to land roles on shows like 'Judging Amy', 'Just Shoot Me', 'JAG', and 'The Young and The Restless', among others.
A guest spot on the hit show 'NCIS' earned Bailey fans worldwide for his portrayal of a sociopathic young naval officer. He went on to appear in major motion pictures like 'Dark Phoenix' and 'French Exit', and starred in the comedy feature film 'Meeting Spencer', which was directed by the late BAFTA award-winning director Malcolm Mowbray.
Bailey also turned heads in the slasher flick 'He's Out There There' and faced off with Jesse Eisenberg in the drama 'The Hummingbird Project'. In 2021, he starred in Amazon Prime Video's 'Three Pines', alongside Alfred Molina, as part of a dynamic ensemble cast.
Additionally, Bailey broke into video games with titles like 'Far Cry 5', 'Deus Ex: Mankind Divided', and 'The Division: Warlords of New York', and provides the lead voice of the massive international hit 'Rainbow Six: Siege', one of Ubisoft's most successful video game franchises in history, boasting more than 70 million registered players worldwide.
