Since then, he has been working hard to try and crack America, and it seems like he’s well on his way.

Fans of The Pitt were stunned to see him pop up in a recent episode, playing a character called Jackson Davis, complete with American accent.

Jackson was a law student who had been brought into hospital after an outburst, and he was subsequently diagnosed with Schizophrenia.

Sharing a clip of him on the show on TikTok, one viewer wrote: “being a British The Pitt fan means recognised random EastEnders actors in the show.”
