Gordon Michael Woolvett began acting when he was eight years old when he joined a summer acting school. He returned each summer for a number of years. He also took lessons in acting and dancing until his teenage years. As often happens with young talent, Woolvett was spotted by an agent while playing the lead in Oliver Twist for one of the drama school productions. He began his professional acting career as a child actor, appearing in commercials and smaller roles before landing the role of James Woods’ son in the 1982 film, Joshua Then and Now.
