Canadian actor Charlie Gillespie enjoyed roles in youth-oriented series in his native country before making a substantial splash in America with prominent roles in the reboot of "Charmed" (The CW, 2018- ) and features like "Speed Kills" (2018). Born in Dieppe, New Brunswick, Canada, he attended Ecole Mathieu-Martin from 2011 to 2017, and made his acting debut in "The Outlaw League" (2014), a Quebecois family drama about young baseball aspirants. Gillespie soon graduated to regular and recurring roles on such Canadian teen dramas as "2nd Generation" (Amazon, 2016-) and "Degrassi: Next Class" (Family/F2N, 2016- ) before breaking into Hollywood with a trio of high-profile projects.
In "Charmed," he was cast as the boyfriend of Sarah Jeffrey, one of three newly minted witches fighting supernatural powers in a small college town, which came on the heels of high-profile roles in "Speed Kills," a drama starring and co-produced by John Travolta about speedboat racing, and "I am the Night" (TNT, 2018), a miniseries about Fauna Hodel, whose grandfather, Hollywood doctor George Hodel, was linked by many to the notorious "Black Dahlia" murder of the 1950s.
