- Owen Cooper was born on December 5, 2009 in Warrington, Cheshire, England, UK. He is an actor, known for Adolescence (2025), Wuthering Heights (2026) and Film Club.
- His debut acting role was as Jamie Miller in Netflix series Adolescence (2025). BAFTA award winning actor Stephen Graham was so impressed at his first audition, that he turned to co-writer Jack Thorne when Cooper left the room and said 'I think that's him'. The acting skills he learned only came from attending The Drama Mob theatre group once a week, which was co-founded by Coronation Street star Tina O'Brien.
- Is the first in his family to break into acting. His mother is a carer and his father works in IT. Cooper started attending weekly drama lessons which he thought would just be a hobby and not amount to anything.
- Was inspired to start acting after watching Tom Holland in The Impossible.
