About
Mike West, playing ages 34 to 45, male.

I'm Originally from the UK. My family moved to Malta when I was 10. At around 29/30 I had my first opportunity to be on set as an extra, on Game of Thrones. They could tell I was super eager so they called me in, as a stand-in which I loved. Mini brag coming up! I’ve gone on to double for Christian Bale, Joseph Fiennes, Rob Lowe.

After meeting people who worked as actors back then, on the set of game of thrones, I somehow made it into various local adverts. A director at the time gave me a break and made me a lead in a commercial for Melita, a large telecommunications company in Malta. After that advert, my luck continued and I went from role to role

I went on to do improv as a hobby, which I really enjoyed and learned I was pretty decent at performing. I ended up doing two shows with the Improv crew. I then began to make short films, with the friends I'd meet on sets, and have continued that to this day. Acting has always been a dream of mine, and I've been really grateful I’ve been able to do it.

I'd love to play more comedic roles as I tend to do well in those, and break out of my type which is basically been 1000 iterations of a soldier.

Thanks for taking the time to read through my bio.
