Life and career

Born in Camden, London in 2004,[3] Conti is the son of comedienne and ventriloquist Nina Conti and comedian Andrew Stanley,[4] and the grandson of actor Tom Conti and actress Kara Wilson. He has a younger brother, Drummond.[5] Conti is a member of the National Youth Theatre, and has appeared in productions of Machinal, Crazy for You and Blithe Spirit. In 2023, he signed with talent agency WME.[2]

Conti made his onscreen debut as the Queen's Page in a 2022 episode of HBO's series House of the Dragon. He went on to play Jeremy Frazier, the brief love interest of Astrid, in the 2024 comedy horror film Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.[1] He had auditioned for the role over a Zoom call with director Tim Burton. Conti was told that he had won the part on April Fools' Day, and thus initially thought it was a practical joke.[6]
