Acting

Wesley Van Tonder

Surrey-based actor with a grounded, natural on-screen presence, suited to drama, crime and character-driven roles.

I bring strong focus, discipline and physicality to my work, with a reliable, professional approach on set. Working in film transport means long days, early calls and life on a unit base are already normal for me. I'm currently building experience across film, TV and commercial projects.

Acting sits alongside my main work as a writer. Being in front of the camera is the best way I know to understand how a script plays from the other side.
