Chris Peterson on Charmed
Birthday: May 19th
Hometown: Los Angeles, CA
Drew Fuller joins the cast of The WB hit series Charmed as Chris Peterson, the Charmed Ones'
new "Whitelighter" guardian angel.
Born in Los Angeles, California, Fuller was discovered by an agent when he was 12 years old after a family friend put
him on the cover of UCLA magazine. After deciding to wait a few years, Fuller entered the modeling world at age 16 and quickly
became a top model for such prestigious companies as Tommy Hilfiger, Prada and Club Med. His good looks helped him make the
transition to commercials easily and he booked numerous spots, including J. Crew, Subway, Toyota and Pepsi opposite Britney
Spears.
Fuller starred as the real-life criminal Rod Farrell in Vampire Clan. He played the drug-crazed killer who claimed
he was a vampire and brutally murdered an innocent family in Florida in 1996. His next film, The One, just won the
audience award at The Sundance Film Festival. Other film credits include Angels Don't Sleep Here and Close Call.
He also appeared in The WB's drama Black Sash.
In his spare time, Fuller enjoys playing basketball, rock climbing, surfing, snowboarding and tennis. He currently resides
in Los Angeles with his cat "The Chad."
Drew Fuller (the bad boy from Black Sash) will be hanging with the Charmed Ones on a regular basis this season.
As Chris, the mysterious whitelighter from the future, Fuller has big plans for the Halliwell sisters. "I'm a lot, a lot,
a lot like this guy in real life. I am very mischievous. I'm already having a lot of fun. I mean, it's kind of scary because
I am the new guy. But these girls are unbelievably cool - and professional. They made me feel right at home."
My character is: "Kind of like the Cheshire cat. Just when you think I'm going to do something evil,
I'm going to surprise you and do something good, and just when you think nothing evil can come of a situation, I'm the one
in the back [manipulating] the situation."
Going to work on Charmed is: "Heaven. Oh, that sounds cheesy, doesn't it? But it's true. I work with three
gorgeous, beautiful, confident, sexy women, who all have really distinct personalities, and really distinct qualities that
they bring to the show."
In the new season: "My character is going to go through a 'slow reveal.' That means the audience is going
to know a lot more me than the girls do. Hopefully, there's going to be this love-and-hate relationship with the audience.
At least, that's what I'm trying to achieve here."
Locking lips with a Charmed One: "Hasn't happened yet. I am not making out with the Charmed girls right
now. I'd like to. I admit it. I'd like to make out with all three of them, but right now that is not part of the plan. Of
course, the season has just begun, so who knows? I say, bring it on!"
