EastEnders has given fans a breakout star in young Max Murray, but there’s more to him than what you see in Walford. The actor behind troubled Joel Marshall is winning hearts behind the scenes, and now fans are discovering a whole new side to him. Keep scrolling to know more.
Talent And Character
Alice Haig, who plays Vicki Fowler, had a lot to say about working with Max. And none of it was small talk. She called him one of the kindest people on set, always sharp, always present. The way she described it, there is no drama, focus, fun, or good work.
In response, Max called himself lucky to share scenes with someone like Alice. The respect goes both ways. Kitty Castledine, who plays Penny, also joined in and called their scenes “brilliant as always”. The love is mutual.
Max Murray’s Secret Life As A Musician Comes To Light
Joel Marshall might stir chaos in Walford, but Max lives a much quieter life once the cameras stop rolling. Off-screen, he’s chasing something entirely different, music. And he’s not doing it alone. He’s doing it with family. Max and his brother formed a band called The Murray Brotherz. Their debut song came out last summer.
The track, titled Dear Amy, dropped on July 23, the same date Amy Winehouse passed away, thirteen years ago. The song is raw, and their sound echoes something deeper. Some say it carries the same sadness as Back to Black.
When Gina shared it, she did not need to say anything. You could see it all on her face. She shared the track and said it came straight from the heart.
