Early life

He was born in Sydney on 6 March 1969, the second of three children. Living in a house right next to the coastline, ne grew to love the sea and the ocean, especially the water sports - swimming, surfing, etc. He was not an obedient child - he was even expelled from school for missing a lesson, while spending time at the seaside. This could't stop him from graduating and starting a bright career.

Career

At the age of 20 he went to New York and began working as a model. He was eager to try modeling as he thought of it as a short-term occupation he would dedicate only a year or two of his life to. It turned out he quite enjoyed those years and, despite taking a break from the fashion industry for a while, he was seen presenting famous brands long after. One day he received a call from the Italian director Lamberto Bava, who gave him an important role in his Fantaghirò series, playing the wicked wizard Tarabas, alongside the Italian actress Alessandra Martines. Rogers was chosen amongst hundreds of candidates for the role of Tarabas.

Bava called on the actor to co-star in The Princess and the Poor (1997) and later in the 1999 mini-series Caribbean. In 1998, he was chosen to play Lorenzo in the movie Laura non c'e by Antonio Bonifacio.

He continued to work as a model and pitchman for companies such as Karl Lagerfeld and Rayban.

In 2005 he was the protagonist of The Razor's Edge, a short film set in post-apocalyptic Australia.[1] [2] Nicholas Rogers, despite having taken part only in a few movie projects, manages to astonish the wide audience with his spectacular presence on screen. He has played a wide variety of characters, all of which have had their own special individualities and colorfull uniqueness. In spite of his well-received performances, though, Rogers didn't manage to find satisfaction in his career as an actor which made him quit. He decided to dedicate his life to the peace away from fame with his wife - his long-term friend Angela, with whom he got married in 2007 - and their son, born in November the same year. Nicholas Rogers owns a company for selling furniture, as well as several clothes shops in Sydney.
