Corey Mylchreest, the actor who portrays the young King George in "Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story," is incredibly new to the entertainment industry. A 2020 graduate of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA), the British actor sharpened his acting with RADA performances as Claudius in "Hamlet" and Octavius and Decius Brutus in "Julius Caesar" before being cast in one of the lead roles in Hannah Beach's short film debut, 2021's "Mars."
The following year, Mylchreest had a small speaking role in Netflix's "The Sandman," only appearing in the very first episode, "Sleep of the Just." His character's name is listed as Adonis in the credits, even though it's never spoken on screen. When Roderick Burgess' (Charles Dance) son Alex (Laurie Kynaston) goes outside to tell the crowd that the Magus insists no more guests be allowed inside, it's Adonis who says condescendingly to him, "Oh, the Magus insists, does he?" while his companion asserts that they're not going anywhere. After Ethel Cripps (Niamh Walsh) ridicules the men for not knowing Alex is the Magus' son, Adonis timidly asks if it's all right if they return the next day.
Mylchreest is just beginning his acting career and starting to build up his body of work. With the release of "Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story," expect to see this actor's star quickly rise.
