Australian soap opera star Jesse Spencer has come a long way since his days as Billy Kennedy on Neighbours. The 45-year-old actor, who played the beloved character from 1994 to 2000 and made a brief return in 2005, has now taken on a completely new look in the trailer for Disney Plus' new show Last Days of the Space Age.
In an interview with TV Week, the Melbourne-born actor revealed his reasons for joining the Disney series. "After leaving Chicago Fire, I took some time to focus on starting a family. But when Last Days of the Space Age came along, I couldn't resist. It was a great opportunity to work on my first Australian project in over 20 years and I was beyond excited for it," he shared.
Since his days on Neighbours, Jesse has appeared in various TV shows, including his breakout role as Dr. Robert Chase on the medical drama House, where he starred alongside Hugh Laurie from 2004 to 2012. He then went on to become a main cast member on the action drama Chicago Fire until 2020, and has since made guest appearances on the show.
In 2020, Jesse tied the knot with his long-time girlfriend, research scientist Kali Woodruff, in a private ceremony in Florida. It's clear that the actor has come a long way since his days on Neighbours and is continuing to make a name for himself in the entertainment industry.
