Although he was born in London, he was educated at the boys'-only boarding school Radley College and was the middle child of three with an older sister and a younger brother. Whilst undertaking a degree in Neuroscience at University College London, Freddie's film and modelling career began to flourish, leading him to take a break from his academic studies so that he could appear as Cormac McLaggen in the film Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Following filming, Stroma returned to University College London to complete his degree, claiming that it, \"would have been a shame to just throw it away.\" He attained a second class degree. \n Career\n Acting: \nHaving landed small parts on a string of British TV shows, including Casualty and BBC's Mayo, Stroma's first breakthrough was when he was cast as Cormac McLaggen in the film Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. It became his most successful film to date. He attended various premieres for the film throughout the globe. He was later cast as Cool Brett in the crime-thriller film 4.3.2.1, which was not as successful as his previous film. He was later recast in the Harry Potter series in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1 and Part 2. He is later due to appear in the direct to DVD film A Cinderella Story: Once Upon A Song, in which he shares the lead role with Lucy Hale. \nHe was also cast in the psychological thriller The Philosophers along with his Harry Potter co-star Bonnie Wright. \n Filmography\nYear\nShow\nRole\nEpisodes\n 2006 \nThe Gil Mayo Mysteries \nLucas Harper \nEpisode 7 \n 2006 \nCasualty \nJames Huppert \nEpisode \"Happy Hour\" \n 2007 \nThe Last Flight to Kuwait \nGregor Schatz \n\n2008 \nLady Godiva \nMatt \n\n2009 \nHarry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince \nCormac McLaggen \n\n2010 \n4.3.2.1 \nCool Brett \n\n2010 \nHarry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1 \nCormac McLaggen \n\n2011 \nHarry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 \nCormac McLaggen \n\n2011 \nA Cinderella Story: Once Upon A Song \nLuke Morgan \n\n2012 \nThe Philosophers \nJack \nPost-Production\u003c/p\u003e","musicPath":"/music/Freddie+Stroma","playStationPath":"/stations/291633999/play","stationId":291633999,"bioPath":"/music/Freddie+Stroma/_full_bio","similars":[{"musicPath":"/music/Tanner+Patrick","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/1a3/1a326a9e4a0ecd32fe83f66b54951eef_md.jpg","artistName":"Tanner Patrick","artistId":391815,"station_id":397649362},{"musicPath":"/music/Sara+Paxton","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/86b/86b6915dc4719b602f587c5a540847a2_md.jpg","artistName":"Sara Paxton","artistId":10774,"station_id":113271992},{"musicPath":"/music/Chris+Wallace","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/d23/d239a84a4dd4fb153e1e899b932627ea_md.jpg","artistName":"Chris Wallace","artistId":174824,"station_id":319953734},{"musicPath":"/music/The+McClain+Sisters","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/2fd/2fdddc5faed3272e4788c74fefd90a01_md.jpg","artistName":"The McClain Sisters","artistId":143608,"station_id":291968044},{"musicPath":"/music/Lucy+Hale","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/d3f/d3f58c88f51288cc5f1e424d5c886d6a_md.jpg","artistName":"Lucy Hale","artistId":93006,"station_id":274551603},{"musicPath":"/music/78violet","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/5ce/5cea5b701577d91cdaa4adefe7e6ec86_md.jpg","artistName":"78violet","artistId":377608,"station_id":395998056},{"musicPath":"/music/Kevin+Hammond","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/883/883d4cdb12e6e741580e58508c5f8ad3_md.jpg","artistName":"Kevin Hammond","artistId":123642,"station_id":283947988},{"musicPath":"/music/Tyler+James+Williams","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/112/11219ffe084d577609ab6cef0400280b_md.jpg","artistName":"Tyler James Williams","artistId":148886,"station_id":297898549},{"musicPath":"/music/Steve+Rushton","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/044/044eb1b1acb6a2dd2493cb3a970128cd_md.jpg","artistName":"Steve Rushton","artistId":15031,"station_id":126242446},{"musicPath":"/music/Tino+Coury","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/2f2/2f24a15df092f0cff6fb03115809434e_md.jpg","artistName":"Tino Coury","artistId":137275,"station_id":286730280},{"musicPath":"/music/Emma+Roberts","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/b36/b3622a0fd6588b04ae0e9b86a49d2c8e_md.jpg","artistName":"Emma Roberts","artistId":103394,"station_id":280596206},{"musicPath":"/music/Demi+Lovato+Joe+Jonas","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/ec4/ec431eee6e5eff7bb9acd943212d4706_md.jpg","artistName":"Demi Lovato \u0026 Joe Jonas","artistId":75391,"station_id":266467372},{"musicPath":"/music/Josh+Strickland","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/08d/08d57cf358880cec835f2bbd94dd79b7_md.jpg","artistName":"Josh Strickland","artistId":126162,"station_id":284347985},{"musicPath":"/music/Drew+Ryan+Scott","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/9df/9df3d8f196ec5e4489a8281e1d3801f6_md.jpg","artistName":"Drew Ryan Scott","artistId":104830,"station_id":281005379},{"musicPath":"/music/Drew+Seeley","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/144/1444b757382c2cdf2061790ee653a6e5_md.jpg","artistName":"Drew Seeley","artistId":13666,"station_id":113285661},{"musicPath":"/music/Alyson+Stoner","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/df2/df29ebe2d0dab57d443b53d6eadc5ec5_md.jpg","artistName":"Alyson Stoner","artistId":135085,"station_id":286143523},{"musicPath":"/music/The+Sockapellas","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/03b/03b321f0cc8ed8080abdb718e21adfaa_md.jpg","artistName":"The Sockapellas","artistId":446240,"station_id":401043981},{"musicPath":"/music/Adrienne+Bailon","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/c67/c67ab55b34491f4fb336d360eaa540d9_md.jpg","artistName":"Adrienne Bailon","artistId":82044,"station_id":268619374}]}
