Early life

Kerr grew up in Musselburgh, near Edinburgh.[3]

Kerr joined the National Youth Theatre of Scotland while in school, and auditioned for Skins when he was 15. Kerr played rugby for six months with the National Youth League, and began studying finance at university and working at a law firm. Deciding it was not for him, he withdrew and moved to London to pursue acting. He trained in theatre.[4]

That same year, he appeared in the docuseries Banged Up Abroad and the ITV sitcom Zomboat!.

In January 2020, Kerr was cast as PC George Kiss in the Channel 4 soap opera Hollyoaks,[9][10] debuting when long-term character Nancy Osbourne (Jessica Fox) was attacked.[11][12] Kerr exited the series in April 2021 when his character was killed off.[13]

In 2022, Kerr played Christopher Foxworth in Flowers in the Attic: The Origin, a Lifetime miniseries prequel based on the novel Garden of Shadows,[14] and Wade Stellings, a recurring role in the musical drama Monarch on Fox.[15] He was also cast in the pilot of a Hulu adaptation of Richard Mason's History of a Pleasure Seeker alongside Carla Woodcock, but it was not picked up for series.[16]

After performing on the Nashville country music scene for six months, Kerr released his debut single "Tequila Therapy" in 2023.[17][18]

Kerr portrays Smoker in the second season of the Netflix series One Piece, the live-action adaptation of the manga series of the same name,[19] and portrays Galad Trakand in the third (and final) season of the Amazon Prime fantasy series The Wheel of Time.[20]

Personal life
