Career
Curry first appeared in Neighbours in 1995 as Luke Handley, and remained on the television series for just over a year. He later returned to the show in a video cameo appearance in 2005 for the programme's 20th anniversary.
Curry was a co-writer and actor on the 2002 ABC sketch comedy series Flipside.[1] In 2002, he starred in the American television movie Junction Boys. He later starred in the 2007 TV film The King, and the 2005 feature film Puppy.[2] Curry was also the host of the comedy series Monster House on the Nine Network. In 2008 Curry appeared in the BBC-commissioned soap opera Out of the Blue, playing Nate Perrett. In late 2008, Curry had the small role of Vishnu on Packed to the Rafters, on the Seven Network. In 2009, Curry joined the soap opera Home and Away as Hugo Austin, and left in 2010. He hosted the first four seasons of Beauty and the Geek Australia, from 2009 to 2012.
In 2016, Curry joined the cast of Wentworth (TV series) as corrupt officer Jake Stewart. Curry revealed that he almost said no to the role as he was busy with his career in LA,[3] but his close friend Sullivan Stapleton told him to audition for the show as Wentworth had become so popular during its first three seasons, so he did. Curry joined the cast for filming in series 4 and stayed until the show's final season. Curry has stated that Wentworth was one of the best jobs he has ever had.
Curry appeared as sports agent Jesse Reade in the 2013 first season of the American VH1 series, Hit the Floor. From 2016 and onward.
Curry, in 2020, posted a video to his Instagram where he and several other prominent figures of Melbourne sung a version of 'Here Comes the Sun' where it was keeping the spirits up of a Melbourne in lockdown.[4]
In August 2021, Curry was announced as a contestant on the celebrity version of Big Brother Australia.[5]
In 2022, Curry joined the cast of ABC drama Savage River[6] and filmed the 2023 series Crazy Fun Park.
In 2022 Curry also returned to the Melbourne Theatre company for the 2022 season and the 2023 season of 'A Christmas Carol'.[7][8]
In 2024, Curry was announced as part of the cast for Ice Road 2.[9]
