Corey Mylchreest (born May 8, 1998) is an English actor. A graduate of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, he is known for his starring role as a fictionalized King George in the Netflix period drama miniseries Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story (2023).
Early life and education
Mylchreest was born on May 8, 1998,[1] and grew up in Leytonstone, East London.[2] He attended Forest School, Walthamstow,[3] and joined the National Youth Theatre.[4] He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Acting from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) in 2020.[4]
Career
Upon graduating from RADA, Mylchreest was cast in open-air productions of the Shakespeare plays Romeo & Juliet and A Midsummer Night's Dream directed by Abbey Wood. In 2022, he made his television debut in the premiere episode of the Netflix adaptation of Neil Gaiman's The Sandman.[5]
Also in 2022, it was announced Mylchreest would star as a young, fictionalised version of King George III in the period drama prequel miniseries Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, which was released on Netflix in May 2023.[6][7] Karama Horne of TheWrap was appreciative of the chemistry between Mylchreest and India Amarteifio (who played the title role of Queen Charlotte) and added that he "does a beautiful job wandering through the wilderness of King George’s mind without being campy".[8]
In June 2023, Mylchreest signed with WME for representation.[9] He will make his West End debut as Edmund in Kenneth Branagh's production of King Lear at Wyndham's Theatre.[10] He will appear in the second installment of the Phelps twins' travel show Fantastic Friends.[11]
