Star of CBS’s hit US show Code Black, Benjamin Hollingsworth is an actor with an uncanny ability to take characters in new and compelling directions. The classically-trained Canadian actor quickly rose through the ranks of the Toronto film industry after leaving school, guest starring on several popular Canadian TV series including Degrassi, Heartland and HBO Canada’s The Line, by George F. Walker. His feature film debut was made alongside Demi Moore and Amber Heard in acclaimed movie The Joneses. This portrayal paved the way for more prominent parts in a range of TV shows such as Suits, Once Upon A Time and The Tomorrow People, with feature film roles in Vendetta and Joy Ride 3.
Perhaps Hollingsworth’s most notable TV role came as a series regular in CBS’s medical drama Code Black. He brought depth and character to the part of Dr. Mario Savetti, earning a Golden Maple Award nomination for Best Actor in a TV series. An ardent humanitarian, Hollingsworth has worked with Habitat for Humanity to help house those in poverty and distress. This charismatic, immediately recognisable actor continues to be lined up for high-profile Hollywood films, proving beyond doubt that he is one of the most highly rated actors of his generation.
