Though his filmography isn’t extensive just yet, young English actor Charlie Rowe has already made appearances in a number of high-profile projects. Remarkably, before he even turned 10, Charlie Rowe was cast in an episode of the long-running British children’s program “Jackanory.” This show, known for featuring well-known figures such as Helena Bonham Carter, Ian McKellen, and Peter Sellers, revolved around celebrities reading classic stories and folktales. In his particular episode, Rowe starred in a humorous take on “The Lord of the Rings” titled “Muddle Earth,” which stood out from previous installments by incorporating full computer animation. The voices and narration were handled by actors Rik Mayall and Ben Kingsley, while Charlie Rowe played Joe, a character clearly inspired by Frodo Baggins.
The following year, Charlie Rowe took on a minor role in the cinematic adaptation of Philip Pullman’s popular novel “The Golden Compass,” the first installment in the “His Dark Materials” trilogy. Though his part was small, the film itself was anything but. Then, in 2009, he appeared in the poorly received but expensive comedy “Pirate Radio,” also known as “The Boat That Rocked,” which centered around rebellious pirate radio DJs during the 1960s who defied authority with their edgy broadcasts.
Charlie Rowe also earned praise for his performance in an episode of the British series “Robin Hood.” That same momentum helped him land a significant supporting role alongside Elle Fanning in “The Nutcracker in 3D.” Later, he reunited with Rhys Ifans, his co-star from “Pirate Radio,” for the two-part miniseries “Neverland,” in which Charlie Rowe portrayed the iconic Peter Pan.
Charlie Rowe has been part of several movies throughout his career, but if we look at the ones that really stand out, Rocketman (2019) definitely takes the top spot as his highest-rated film. On the flip side, one of his earlier roles was in The Nutcracker (2010), which, in comparison, holds the position of his lowest-rated movie. While Charlie Rowe’s performance in Rocketman received widespread acclaim, his appearance in The Nutcracker didn’t quite resonate the same way with audiences or critics. It’s interesting to see how Charlie Rowe’s career has evolved between these two films.
