UTA has added British actor Lox Pratt to its roster, representing him across all areas. Pratt recently gained attention for his role as Jack Merridew in Jack Thorne’s four-part television series “Lord of the Flies,” the first-ever television adaptation of William Golding’s classic novel. The series follows a group of boys stranded on a deserted island whose attempts at self-governance quickly descend into conflict and disorder. Pratt plays Jack, the ambitious and unpredictable figure whose decisions drive much of the story’s tension. His performance has been noted for its range, focus and the maturity he brings to the role.
“Lord of the Flies” premiered in February on BBC One in the U.K. and Stan in Australia, earning critical recognition for its performances and production. A U.S. release on Netflix is scheduled for later this year.
Pratt has continued to star in leading roles in major literary adaptations. He is currently filming HBO’s television adaptation of “Harry Potter,” where he plays Draco Malfoy, the cunning Slytherin student and central antagonist to Harry Potter at Hogwarts, a role originally portrayed by Tom Felton in the film series. He stars alongside Johnny Flynn as Lucius Malfoy. The series is expected to premiere in early 2027. Besides UTA, Pratt continues to be represented by Insight Management & Production, Public Eye Communications and Gang, Tyre, Ramer. UTA represents a wide range of actors, filmmakers and content creators across film, television and digital media. Pratt joins a roster that includes both established and emerging talent, expanding the agency’s presence in global television and film.
