Oliver Devoti

Oliver John Devoti born in Birmingham, England and went to Whittford Hall private school until at the age of 10 when he moved to Newcastle-upon-Tyne and attended Ryton Comprehensive school. Oliver joined the infantry when he turned 18, serving on operations with the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers as part of Close Observation Platoon; a plain clothed, special tactics unit responsible for gathering intelligence and apprehending high value targets. Upon his release, Oliver took actor training at the Manchester School of Theatre MMU, receiving a Bachelor of Arts degree in Acting. During his actor training Oliver found his sister hanged on New Years Eve 2008. He continued his studies and passionately pursues his career in memory of his beloved sister and late father. Oliver's richly unique and turbulent life experiences have helped shape an engaging and intense screen presence, with an incredible depth found only through the lived experience of such a life. These qualities make for beautifully honest and vulnerable performances.
