The young artist is a talented actor and musician, which makes him a perfect fit as a ghostly pop-punk guitarist. This Charlie Gillespie wiki reveals more on this star you need to keep an eye out for.

Charlie Gillespie’s Career

Gillespie’s old Instagram posts show he has a talent for the guitar and singing. He also has a lot of modeling pictorials on social media.

His acting career began in 2014 with minor roles. He had a minor appearance in the 2017 season of Degrassi: Next Class. He later appeared in the first season of 2nd Generation in 2018.

Gillespie had a two-episode role in the 2018 Charmed reboot. Though Gillespie’s Brian was not a major character, it is his most well-known role that gained him more visibility.

Kenny Ortega’s Julie and the Phantoms is his first major role. The show follows Julie (Madison Reyes), who forms a band with three ghosts who were pop-punk musicians when they were alive. Gillespie plays Luke, a ghostly guitarist (obvs) who finally gets a shining moment with his bandmates thanks to Julie.
