In his TV debut, Owen Cooper dazzles by playing Jamie Miller, a boy accused of murder in 'Adolescence'


The debut of Owen Cooper in the Netflix series, "Adolescence," has left a mark on the audience and critics. This young British actor, just 15 years old, surprised with his performance in a gripping thriller that gained great popularity on the streaming platform.

Owen Cooper made his first appearance on the small screen with "Adolescence," a miniseries that tells the story of Jamie Miller, a 13-year-old accused of murder. Despite being his first acting experience, his performance has been praised by critics and viewers. The series, directed by Philip Barantini, has captured attention not only for its plot but also for its innovative continuous shot filming style.

A filming challenge

One of the most demanding aspects of the series was its filming technique. Each episode was shot in a single continuous take, which involved repeating the same scene up to 16 times. Cooper confessed in an interview with Variety that he initially doubted his ability to face this challenge, but he managed to adapt thanks to the support of the production team and his fellow cast members.

Industry recognition

Cooper's performance has been widely applauded. Director Philip Barantini highlighted his natural ability to act with authenticity, something many professionals take years to perfect. "Many actors train for years and don't achieve what he does: live the moment, listen, and be genuine," Barantini stated.

Future projects in Hollywood

The success of "Adolescence" has opened new doors for him. Cooper has already been confirmed for a role in "Wuthering Heights," directed by Emerald Fennell and starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi. Additionally, rumors suggest he might be part of the British series "Film Club," produced by the BBC and starring Aimee Lou Wood.

A life away from the spotlight

Despite his growing fame, Cooper maintains a low profile on social media. As of March 2025, he has only shared six posts on Instagram, but his account already has around 60,000 followers. He has no presence on X or other platforms.

Outside the set, he continues to enjoy activities typical of his age. The director of "Adolescence" revealed that after intense filming days, Cooper used to play swingball before returning to the set, showing that he remains a common teenager despite his rapid rise in the entertainment industry.
