Sam Corlett
- Actor
- Director
- Writer
Raised on the Central Coast of Australia, Sam Corlett's journey to becoming an actor was an unexpected one. With his mother as a counselor and his father as a builder, Sam's early years were filled with pursuits on the rugby field and basketball court. However, it was through his deep love for art, psychology, and poetry that he discovered his passion for the art of storytelling.
As an Actor, Sam has honed his craft under the guidance of some of the industry's most esteemed coaches, including Elizabeth Kemp, Les Chantery, and Gerry Grennell. He graduated with a Bachelor of Performing Arts in Acting from the prestigious Western Australia Academy of Performing Arts in 2018.
Among the several productions he has been a part of, Sam's stage highlights include embodying Stanley Kowalski in Tennessee Williams' A Streetcar Named Desire, bringing Thomas Putnam to life in Arthur Miller's The Crucible, and playing Demetrius in William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream.
Sam's first step into the screen saw him cast alongside Eric Bana in the now Australian classic, 'The Dry'. Within weeks, he flew internationally to join Kiernan Shipka, Miranda Otto, and Richard Coyle in the much-adored series, 'The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina', where he portrayed the Prince of Hell, Caliban. While filming this YA epic, Sam was cast in the lead role of Leif Erikson in Netflix's historical saga, 'Vikings: Valhalla', which achieved the number one spot on the Netflix Global charts for both Season 1 and Season 2.
In 2024, Sam will be seen in the third and final season of Viking: Valhalla, as well as the much-anticipated feature film 'He Ain't Heavy', where he stars alongside Liela George and Greta Scacchi.
As a writer/director Sam's short film for Sony Ciné, 'At The Motel', received much praise. He is now producing two features.
Sam has also just wrapped a new project with Netflix.
