Sam Coleman(II)
- Actor
Known for playing the younger version of Hodor in Game of Thrones (2016) as well as the mentally disturbed Bud in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre prequel, Leatherface (2017), Sam (born Samuel Joseph Coleman) is a young, British actor who was born in High Wycombe (UK) on the 26th of September 1996.
Sam's journey into the world of acting started when his mother took him to a local theatre group at the age of 5 to boost his confidence. As a teenager, Sam developed his skills and gained experience with the Jacqueline Fox school of dance and the East Sussex School of Performing Arts.
Since then Sam has gone on to perform in UK concert tours alongside the likes of Kerry Ellis and Ruthie Henshall as well as working in film and television, most notably playing the young Hodor in Game of Thrones.
As well as his acting exploits Sam is also a keen writer and poet. When he's not working, he is usually writing something. Sam is also quite openly political as a proud socialist and member of the UK Labour Party.
Since November 2015, Sam has stuck to a strictly vegan diet due to his views on animal cruelty and climate change as well as being conscious about his weight. Sam is also an atheist and a member of Humanists UK, sighting some of his secular heroes as Tim Minchin, Derren Brown and Shappi Khorsandi (to name a few).
Sam has often said that his main life goal is to one day be in a position where he can make a lasting and meaningful difference to the lives of the disadvantaged, be that through activism, philanthropy or both.
