Lincoln Lewis playes Geoff Campbell, a hard working farm boy who has discovered life beyond the farm gate.
Lincoln was born in Brisbane on 24 Oct 1987 and moved to Sydney earlier this year for the role on Home and Away. His father is the famous NRL ‘king’, Wally Lewis. While Lincoln’s family was sad to see him leave home, they’re glad to see his hard work pay off and are extremely proud of him.
Lincoln has played football all his life and while he considered following in his father’s footsteps - acting has always been his passion. His character Geoff also shows skills on the football field, so in a sense Lincoln is realising both his dreams through this role.
Lincoln has been acting since he was 13. In 2005 he had the lead role in Voodoo Lagoon and starred in Aquamarine. He was also a presenter on Kids Biz in 2006.
Lincoln’s character, Geoff, lost his parents at a tender age and has since been raised at the firm hand of his fire and brimstone grandfather. Sensible and serious, Geoff has no room for fun in his grim life – and the occasional smile he cracks can only be raised by Annie or rugby.
“In some ways Geoff and I are the same” says Lincoln, “we both love family and footy… I’m a little more outgoing though!”
Lincoln was thrilled to win a logie for Most Popular New Male Talent at the 2008 TV Week Logie Awards.
