David Bourne (born April 8, 1970),[1] known professionally as JR Bourne, is a Canadian actor. After appearing in many television series, Bourne's first major breakthrough was the Showtime series Stargate SG-1 (1998–2000). He achieved further prominence for his role as Chris Argent in the MTV supernatural series Teen Wolf (2011–2017)

Early life

[edit]

Bourne was born on April 8, 1970, in Toronto, Ontario, and grew up in Barbados. He has an older sister.[2] He had an interest in acting since the age of 10 but it was not until he was around the age of 24 that he realized that it would be a way for him to make a living.[3]

Career

[edit]

Bourne first appeared in the action film Jungleground (1995). He subsequently appeared in many television series. His first major television role was as Martouf / Lantash on the Showtime science fiction adventure Stargate SG-1 (1998–2000).[1]

Bourne has won two Vancouver Film Critics Circle Awards for Best Supporting Actor in a Canadian Film: for On the Corner in 2004[4] and Everything's Gone Green in 2007.[5] He also received nominations for Best Supporting Performance by a Male in a Feature Length Drama for both films at the Leo Awards.[6][7] In the following year, he was cast as CIA agent Edwards on the science fiction drama Fringe (2009–2011).[1] Bourne then appeared in the second season of the ABC series Revenge.[1]

He portrayed Chris Argent on all six seasons of the supernatural drama series Teen Wolf (2011–2017)[8] and was part of the main cast in the final season.[8] Bourne has also appeared as a series regular on the mystery drama Somewhere Between (2017),[9][1] and science fiction drama The 100 (2019–2020).[1][10]

In September 2021, it was announced that a reunion film for 2011 Teen Wolf television series had been ordered by Paramount+, with Jeff Davis returning as a screenwriter and executive producer for the film.[11][12] The majority of the original cast members, including Bourne, reprised their roles.[13] The film was released on January 26, 2023.

Charity work

[edit]

Bourne's niece was born with the genetic disorder cystic fibrosis,[8] and he has long been a champion of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.[8] In an interview with MTV News, Bourne revealed that he had come to realize back when he had first started doing conventions for Teen Wolf how amazing of a platform it provided to raise money and awareness for the foundation.[8]
