Early life and career
Richardson was born in Sydney, Australia, before moving to London at the age of two.[1] At the age of 12, he went back to Australia for high school at Sydney Grammar School, where he discovered his love for acting, and returned to the UK when he was 18. He did a short course at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London before enrolling at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts in Perth in 2012.[1][2]
Richardson's first film was Looking for Grace in which he starred as Jamie. He auditioned for the role of Frank Gresham in the television series Doctor Thorne when visiting family in London and attended "an audition in the morning before [his] flight back to Australia."[2] He then starred in Poldark, from the third season onward, as Drake Carne.[3] He appeared in the 2017 film Dunkirk "for a second," but described the experience as a "teaser to a dream that I want to actualize."[4] In 2019, he starred in the political drama series Total Control as Senator Irving's Adviser Jonathan Cosgrove.[5] He has played Larry Russell in HBO's The Gilded Age since 2022.
