Career Highlights
Bruno Hart is a New Zealand actor born in Amsterdam, with a childhood spent in motion and a restlessness picked up somewhere between Europe, Africa and the Pacific. Drawn to storytelling that's a little offbeat and emotionally honest, Bruno is known for roles that blend depth with a certain dreamlike edge. In 2026 he led the Court Theatre's gothic stage adaptation of Let the Right One In as Oskar, stepping into a story born of John Ajvide Lindqvist's celebrated novel and its cult film adaptations, in a performance critics praised for its "beautiful soft-voiced tenderness". On film, his ghost-punk turn as Eddy in Imaginary Friends premiered at the Sitges Film Festival and is now streaming worldwide through Crypt TV, where it has amassed an enthusiastic and viral following. He recently wrapped the feature Turn Me Dark, directed by Alex Plumb — whose previous film Jane Campion selected as NZ's Best at NZIFF. Alongside this, he holds lead roles in multiple distinctive proof-of-concept projects in development, cementing him as an alternative leading man with a character actor's instincts. His breakout short Nokia Low continues to gather momentum on YouTube. Having moved into professional acting training from a foundation in design and art, Bruno brings a thoughtful, intuitive energy to every role. Always open to the unexpected, and always in pursuit of pushing himself into new terrain.
