Now, read through this ‘Tobie Donovan Biography’ and learn all about his height, partner, age, parents and The Heart Stopper trip.
Tobie Donovan Above The Heart Stopper
Dear Tobie Donovan, Listener It was truly the craziest and most exciting experience of his life. He played newcomer Isaac Henderson, alongside Rhea Norwood as Imogen Heaney.
Isaac is the introverted member of Charlie (Joe Locke), Tao (William Gao), and Elle (Yasmin Finney)’s group of friends. He’d rather read novels than deal with any dramatic issues. But that doesn’t mean he’s not a solid, supportive friend in the core group.
Isaac may not have been born to creator Alice Oseman. But he certainly has her approval. Most recently on Twitter, she couldn’t stop gushing about him. “He’s a nerd and doesn’t talk much, but when he does, it’s usually insightful and/or funny. He doesn’t have a big arc of his own this season, but I have a lot of plans for him in future seasons,” she gushed about the on-screen newcomer. She wished him the best of luck with the actor who played her favorite character on the show.
Most recently on Instagram, Tobie also thanked the series’ executive producers Patrick Walters, Euros Lyn and casting director Daniel Edwards-Guy, along with Alice Oseman, for believing in him and entrusting him with telling Isaac’s story.
Like the original story, The Heart StopperThe live-action version of Heartstopper follows two high school boys, and the romantic tensions simmering beneath their burgeoning friendship. Mild-mannered Charlie and football-loving Nick meet in high school and quickly discover their unlikely friendship blossoms into an unexpected romance. Along the way, the pair, along with their group of friends, including Isaac, navigate a journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance that is always in sync, supporting each other as they learn to find their most authentic selves.
The creator, Alice, didn’t make any money from it at first. It was just a passion project of hers. She just uploaded it online for free. And now that it’s been turned into a TV show, she feels really weird about it.
