[edit] Biography
George Mackay was born on 13th March 1992.
At the age of five, he produced, directed and created his very own production of the play "Peter and the Wolf" with his friends playing the characters. He cast himself as in the lead role of the Wolf so that he could swing from trees.
In 2002, George was spotted at his school by an acting scout, who asked the then ten-year-old if he would like to audition for a role in Peter Pan (2003). He attended a workshop, and quickly landed the part of one of the Lost Boys, Curly, in what was to be his big break.
Soon after, he had small roles in an episode of "Rose and Maloney" (2002) and television drama Footprints in the Snow (2005) (TV).
In 2005, at the age of thirteen, he won the role of Riccio in The Thief Lord (2006). The film adaptation of Cornelia Funke's best selling children's novel.
Later on in the same year, he also was cast in the lead role of Johnny and the Bomb (2006) (TV). A BBC drama adapted from Terry Pratchett's novel of the same name.
