Fabien Gillander

About me

Fabien began his acting journey in 2021, studying at LAMDA (London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art), one of the world’s best conservatories for classical theatre. With a solid foundation in traditional performance, he later went back to MetFilm School, where he earned a degree in Screen Acting (BA). Then 40 short films, plays and feature films later, his final graduation projects were shown at (VUE) Cinema in London.

During his training, Fabien remained actively involved in the industry, attending auditions worldwide. His dedication paid off when he secured the main role of Pierre Schaul in the feature film Operatioun Pauly (2024), which was screened in Germany and Luxembourg.

In addition to his acting work, he also contributed as a Dance Artist at the BBC Southbank Centre 75th anniversary production You Are Here (2026), directed by Danny Boyle. He also worked behind the scenes as a Covid Check Officer on Poison (2024), a drama film directed by Désirée Nosbusch and produced by the independent production company Deal Productions S.A.
