Available to hire
Hi there, I’m Paul Thompson, an Auckland-based actor with on-set experience across New Zealand in film, TV, and theatre. I’ve worked as a featured extra, narrator, and voiceover artist on a range of projects including web series, student films, and theatre productions.
Over the years I’ve taken on roles from the classical stage to contemporary screen, and I enjoy collaborating with directors, writers, and fellow cast to create authentic, engaging performances. I’m flexible, reliable, and eager to contribute to new projects.
