[edit] Biography

Mulvey was born in New Zealand and is of Maori heritage. His family moved to Sydney, Australia when he was eight years old. Best known for his role as Drazic on the popular Australian teen drama Heartbreak High, Mulvey attended Beacon Hill High School along with other Heartbreak High cast members Jon Pollard and Alle Brunning.

In the mid-nineties, he was a member / sponsored by Manly Skates Inline Skating. His skating, like fellow cast member Jon Pollard, was featured extensively in Heartbreak High.

Mulvey was injured in a serious car accident in 2003[1], in a head-on collision at 100 km/hr. He was trapped in the vehicle for almost an hour until he could be freed from the wreckage. The mid section of his face collapsed, an incision was made from ear to ear over the top of his scalp, his face "pulled down" and 17 titanium plates were then inserted to repair the fractures to his face and jaw. His left knee and ankle were badly fractured and he lost vision in one eye. He re-entered the spotlight for the release of Thunderstruck.

Over the last two years, Mulvey has had guest spots on Home and Away and McLeod's Daughters.

He is currently starring in the Australian underworld crime show Underbelly as Mark Moran.
