Nicholas Rogers is an Australian
Early life
He was born in Sydney on 6 March 1969, the second of three children. Living in a house right next to the coastline, he grew to love the sea and the ocean, especially water sports like swimming, surfing, etc. He was not an obedient child; he was even expelled from school because he missed a lesson in order to spend some time at the seaside. This behavior didn't stop him from graduating and starting a bright career.
Career
At the age of 20 he went to New York and began working as a model. He was eager to try modeling as he thought of it as a short-term occupation to which he would dedicate only a year or two of his life. It turned out that he quite enjoyed those years because, despite taking a break from the fashion industry for a while, he continued to model and to be the face of famous brands long after. One day he received a call from the Italian director
Bava called on the actor to co-star in The Princess and the Poor (1997) and later in the 1999 mini-series Caribbean. In 1998, he was chosen to play Lorenzo in the movie Laura non c'e by Antonio Bonifacio.
He continued to work as a model and pitchman for companies such as
In 2005 he was the protagonist of The Razor's Edge, a short film set in post-apocalyptic Australia.[1] [2] Nicholas Rogers, despite having taken part only in a few movie projects, managed to astonish the wide audience with his spectacular presence on screen. He has played a wide variety of characters, all of which have had their own special individualities and colorful uniqueness. In spite of his well-received performances, Rogers quit acting because he didn't gain satisfaction from it. He decided to live a peaceful life out of the limelight with his wife and long-term friend Angela, with whom he got married in 2007, and their son, born in November the same year. Nicholas Rogers owns a furniture company, as well as several clothes shops in Sydney.
