ACTOR…

Most recently, Kole appeared as a series regular in the Sky TV/Canal+ western drama series DJANGO alongside Noomi Rapace and Matthias Schoenaerts.
His previous television credits include ITV’s MANHUNT: THE NIGHT STALKER, and BBC’s medical drama HOLBY CITY. Kole is set to appear in the second season of the PBS/BBC World War II period drama WORLD ON FIRE, starring Lesley Manville and Sean Bean.
FILMMAKER…
