Charlie Vickers (born 24 October 1992) is an Australian actor. He plays Sauron in the Amazon Prime fantasy series The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.

Personal life[edit]

Vickers was born in St Kilda, Melbourne, Australia. He grew up in Geelong.[1] He studied for an arts degree at RMIT University in Melbourne and took part in amateur theatre, including playing the Judge in Queen's College MADS production of Stephen Sondheim's Sweeney Todd, before undertaking an audition for a UK-based drama school which was held in Sydney.[1]

Vickers moved to London, England,[2] where he joined the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama,[3] graduating in 2017.[4]

Career[edit]

Vickers played the youngest son of the Pazzi family in eight episodes of the Netflix television series Medici.[4] He starred in Rachel Ward's comedy-drama film Palm Beach,[5] alongside Sam Neill, Matilda Brown, Greta Scacchi and Richard E. Grant.[4] Vickers starred with Carryl Thomas in the thriller film Death in Shoreditch.[4]

In 2022, Vickers had a main role as Sauron[6] in the Tolkien-based Amazon television series The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power,[3] first appearing in episode 2 as the Dark Lord's human disguise Halbrand.[2] Vickers was purportedly unaware he was to take the role until filming the third episode.[6] To immerse himself in it, Vickers went hiking for 5 days in the Tongariro National Park, New Zealand.[2] To perform the underwater scenes, Vickers does freedive.[7] Vickers is a keen runner, having completed several triathlons and regularly done 5–10 km (3.1–6.2 mi) runs several times a week.[7]
