Early life

[edit]

Remmers was born in Bristol to a New Zealand-born father and a Welsh mother. He had a creative upbringing[1] surrounded by the city's garage and house music scene; his older brothers were DJs, as were several of his friends.[2] Remmers attended Fairfield High School, where he took part in school productions and became inspired by his drama teacher.[3] At age 16, he was dismissed from school with only a drama GCSE to his name after getting in trouble, which he attributes to struggling with dyslexia at the time.[4] He joined Bristol Old Vic's Young Company.[5]

At the age of 17, Remmers made his professional stage debut as Kol in The Grandfathers at the Bristol Old Vic in 2012, which transferred to the National Theatre in London.[6][7] He subsequently found an acting agent. He was scouted to model while at Bristol's The Love Inn and turned his focus towards that for the next few years,[8] landing gigs in Milan, Paris, and London.[4] In 2017, Remmers was named one of London's up-and-coming models by Da Man.[9] He appeared in the 2020 short film Lessons opposite Ashley Byam.[10]

Remmers made his television debut when he was cast as Theo, Duke of Tintagel in the 2023 Apple TV+ period drama The Buccaneers, based on Edith Wharton's novel of the same title.[11][12] To prepare for the role, Remmers took up painting and worked with movement coach Toby Sedgwick.[13][3]
