One of Will Sharpe's earliest roles was that of Yuki Reid, a smart but troubled second-year doctor in the long-running BBC medical drama "Casualty." After appearing in roughly 50 episodes from 2009 to 2010, the British-Japanese actor went on to co-write, co-direct, and star in "Black Pond," a 2011 comedy-thriller in which a family is accused of killing their dinner guest. For his debut as a writer/director, Sharpe received a nomination for a 2012 BAFTA Award.

The next year, he appeared in a second-season episode of "Sherlock," the popular modern-day reimagining of the classic detective character, and in an episode of the sci-fi comedy "Dirk Gently."
