But in the case of a British artist named Robbie Kay, everything happened exactly the opposite. He is charismatic, attractive, infinitely talented and smart. We are well acquainted with his brilliant work in Once Upon a Time, but he also performed well in the legendary film Pirates of the Caribbean 4. Well, if you want to know more about this young talent, we offer you to go through his biography and remember the films with his participation.

Biography

Robert Andrew Kay, or simply Robbie Kay was born in 1995, September 13, in the south of England. His native Leamington is in Hampshire and serves as an important port and outlet to the open sea. It is worth taking note of the fact that for Robbie the subject of navigation and ships is not just interesting, it is dear to him, and this later played an important role in the development of his career.

Short time boyalso lived in the north of England, in the city of Tyneside, and later his whole family emigrated to the capital of the Czech Republic - to Prague. It was there that he began to show his acting talent, get acquainted with local directors and take part in creative competitions.

It is worth noting that the boy stood out from the general mass of contestants. Firstly, he was an Englishman, and secondly, many people were attracted by his non-standard and very attractive appearance.

The beginning of the creative path

It was in Prague that Robbie Kay first learned about theater, film and stage. One day, on the bulletin board, the guy found a note stating that a set of children who speak English are going to shoot the film. Since this language is native for the boy, he applied without hesitation, and it was accepted. It was then about the legendary film "The Illusionist", which was released in 2006.

Robbie Kay received a cameo role in it, but, alas, the scenes with his participation were cut. However, the actor decided not to despair, as he already had many good acquaintances and proved himself well on the set.

First screen appearances

Further history repeated itself, but this time his face flashed all the same in the frame. If you look carefully at films like Hannibal Rising and My Boy Jack, Robbie can be seen in some scenes. For a very young artist, this was an achievement and a springboard for further heights.

It is important to note that after such an appearance in such iconic films, Kay's personalityone Canadian film company became interested. It was her representatives who chose the young actor from the many contenders for the role of young Jacob in the legendary production of "Shards" (2007). The picture was filmed in Greece for 9 weeks and gave Robbie not only fame, but also experience.

First leading roles

Key received his key role, which became the first major in his career as an actor, in the film "The Magic Story of Pinocchio". It is clear that he played a wooden boy there. Robbie did his job so convincingly and at the same time nicely that the role of the hero from fairy tales literally took root in him and later played into his hands. Photos of Robbie Kaye instantly spread around the world, and he became not just a talented actor, but a sought-after star and idol for many children and teenagers.

Minor but important roles

After the triumph of the picture about Pinocchio, the actor takes part in the filming of the film "Lie low in Bruges", where he plays the role of young Harry. The next picture with his participation is "Made in Dagenham", and it was followed by the film "The Way to Eternal Life".

But the biggest success in the young artist's career was the role of cabin boy in the historical thriller and comedy Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Collaboration with Johnny Depp and Penelope Cruz was a dream come true, and the young actor became very attached to his older colleagues. It was an unforgettable and very rewarding experience, as well as a plus for fame and recognition.

Once Upon a Time…

It was in the third part of this cult project that Robbie Kay played one of the main and key roles. The films we've seen him in before served as a good experience for the young artist, so he brilliantly coped with the sinister, cunning and insidious role of Pen.
