Micky McGregor

Micky McGregor’s love for the screen arts happened purely by chance: after being ejected from a school lesson for misbehaviour, he was made to sit in on a drama class and a desire to pursue a career in the arts quickly blossomed.

The Tyne and Wear-born actor graduated with an HND in Drama, Applied Theatre and Education in 2010 and he has been honing his talent ever since. His early stage credits were followed by a television debut in the BAFTA-nominated series Wolfblood (CBBC) in 2016. That same year, he landed a small but memorable part in Ken Loach’s hard-hitting social drama I, Daniel Blake, which won BAFTA’s Outstanding British Film category in 2017. This was the first of three collaborations with Loach and his long-time writing collaborator, Paul Laverty, with roles following in Sorry We Missed You (2019) and The Old Oak (2023) – both films were also nominated for Outstanding British Film.

Micky also appeared in Babak Anvari’s eagerly awaited follow-up to Under the Shadow, titled I Came By (Netflix), in 2022. Other recent roles include a guest spot in crime drama Vera (ITV) and a turn in World Production mini-series The Hunt for Raoul Moat (ITV), both in 2023. He was recently cast for a role in season two of police procedural series Ridley (ITV).

Micky also co-founded Blowin’ A Hooley Theatre, a company dedicated to improving access to theatre, particularly for North East audiences and artists, and showcasing authentic stories to typically non-theatre goers. As well as touring plays, such as original work Notice to Move, the company offers talent development and runs school workshops and community programmes.

Micky is represented by Bex Elliff at CAM London.
