There’s no question that Leo Woodall’s star is on the rise.
Born in London in 1996, Woodall doesn’t have many screen credits under his belt.
Nevertheless, he’s made a big impact with the few roles he has taken.
In fact, no one is more amazed at how his career has skyrocketed than Woodall himself.
“‘White Lotus is a star-studded show and I was not a star.”
The actor’s future is surely bright, and fans are anticipating even greater success to come.
Until then, take a look at his journey thus far, and experience the transformation of Leo Woodall.
In addition, Leo’s grandfather was an actor, as is his stepfather, Alexander Morton.
Leo’s familial connection with acting actually goes back even further than that.
In fact, his early career goals were more physically oriented.
“I wanted to be a PE teacher or a stuntman,” he told W Magazine.
“For some reason, it changed my mind,” he revealed.
“He said, ‘Why did you do that to me?
Why did you build up this suspense?
He then began the life of a professional actor in his native London, going on audition after audition.
It didn’t take him long to land a role.
That role not only raised his profile but proved to be a financial godsend.
He auditioned and landed the role, cast as Jack, a character not what he seems to be.
Woodall wound up receiving more attention for his role as Jack than any other character he’d played.
“I had a really fun role in the show.
And the show it was so lovely that so many people were watching it and loving it.
And I was very proud to be a part of that,” he toldPeople.
“But I also maintained a level of anonymity, which I was really holding onto.”
I wish I could paraphrase it better than that,” he recalled.
“All the Americans in the cast, Mike [White, the showrunner], the Italians.
No one really knew what I was saying.”
“That was fun,” he toldBritish Vogue.
“Although [fans] were probably disappointed when they heard my real non-Essex accent.”
It was while filming the show in Sicily that he met co-starMeghann Fahy.
I love you!"
Woodall replied to the comment, writing, “Love you right back.”
When asked about their rumored relationship, the two initially played coy.
‘“Oh, I don’t kiss and tell,” she said before saying they were friends.
After that, however, the pair were spottedkissing in New York Cityandgetting cozyat an Emmys afterparty.
While they hadn’t officially confirmed their relationship, neither made any attempts to hide it.
“I’m a lucky boy,” Woodall toldBritish Voguein November 2023.
In February 2024, Fahy posted a photo of the two onInstagram, walking arm in arm.
Landing the role of Dex was no mean feat, with Woodall put through multiple rounds of rigorous auditions.
“I remember literally just breathing a huge sigh of relief.
And I laid on the floor and was just like: thank f*** for that!
Because it was such a tough process.”
AsTheWrapreported, “One Day” immediately shot to the No.
3 spot in Netflix’s list of English-language TV shows, viewed over 5 million times.
As theDaily Mailreported, that number grew to 15.2 million within the 11 days following its premiere.
“Both characters are so well-formed.
There’s a huge [amount] of joyfulness.”
“And it was all the things it was fun, it was filling, it was heartbreaking.
Even though his star has risen considerably, Woodall doesn’t consider himself to be “famous.”
Woodall’sfirst post, in fact, dates back to 2017, when he was just 20 years old.
