Morgan Davies in The End (2020)

Biography

Morgan Davies

Overview

  • Born
    November 27, 2001 · Sydney, Australia

Mini bio

  • Morgan has garnered outstanding reviews and a huge fan base, based on his performance in the role of Koby in the much anticipated, live action adaptation of One Piece for Netflix, based on the highly celebrated Manga of the same name. This came not long after performing a lead role in Evil Dead Rise for director Lee Cronin, the latest chapter in the Evil Dead horror franchise.

    He can also be seen in See-Saw Films The End from creator Samantha Strauss (Foxtel Australia, Showtime US and SkyTV UK); The Girlfriend Experience, a Starz Original Series, opposite Carmen Ejogo, and the re-telling of iconic Australian feature film Storm Boy. Short films include Beautiful They (directed by Cloudy Rhodes) and Calliope's Prelude (directed by Richard Ellis). He also appears in a supporting role in artist Del Kathryn Barton's feature directorial debut, Blaze.

    Morgan made his screen debut at only seven years of age, opposite Charlotte Gainsbourg in the Australian/French feature film The Tree. Directed by Julie Bertuccelli, the film premiered on closing night of the Cannes Film Festival and earned Morgan rave reviews. His performance was honoured with a Film Critics Circle Award and AFI nominations in both the categories of Best Lead Actor and Best Young Actor. The following year, Morgan appeared in The Hunter, an adaptation of the award-winning novel by Julia Leigh. The film, staring Willem Dafoe and Sam Neill, premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) and saw Morgan again nominated for an AFI (AACTA).

    Other credits include Steven Spielberg's Terra Nova; Return To The Devil's Playground for Foxtel, and the short films Julian (Crystal Bear Winner for Best Short Film at the Berlin Film Festival, Generation KPlus) and Alice Englert's The Boyfriend Game, which premiered at TIFF.

Quotes

  • [on getting the role of Simone for the film The Tree] I loved it so much I begged the casting director to let me audition again and she said to come back the next week but that I probably wouldn't get the part because it was a French production. And I got it! The next thing we know we'd put everything we owned in the car, including the mice and drove for 15 hours to Queensland for four months.
  • [on working with Charlotte Gainsbourg during the production of the film The Tree] Charlotte was really cool, she bought me an iPod and a book. Obviously I didn't know what the hell I was doing and she would teach me what to do and was really forgiving.
  • [on his first time attending the Cannes Film Festival to promote the film The Tree] I had no idea about the gravity of the festival. I wore Crocs! [laughs] It was insane, I was going to nightclubs, I was with Kirsten Dunst at 3 am, but my main memory of Cannes was getting room service when I got back: mac and cheese.
  • I really like becoming someone else and even back then I did too. I've always really cared how people see me, so I liked being able to switch off [who I am] and instead bring someone else to life. It's like a superpower.
  • [on how only a small circle of people knew about his decision to transition from female to male] At 13 I came out as trans, just to mum and Catherine [his trusted agent and friend Catherine Poulton] and a few close friends. I was going through a lot, thinking: 'Who the f*ck am I and where am I going?'
