I agree with Ellen. Firstly, any biography of "our George" would have to include Billy Elliot. Secondly, the George Ellen is suggesting was born in 1985, whereas "our George" was born in 1990. The former would have been 20 when he played Billy, whereas the latter would have been 15, which is the age all the Billy biographies list him as.

The other George's biography on Wiki even has a warning at the top of it "https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_ ... born_1990)".

I'm sure Ellen is correct. I just think it's strange there are two actors using the same name. I thought the major unions (Equity and SAG) had processes to prevent duplicate actor names.

Actually, there is also a highly respected American actor named George Maguire:
