6His parents were involved in the music industry, so he became involved in musical theater. He made the transition to dramatic theater, during which he was noticed by the makers of ''Film/SweeneyToddTheDemonBarberOfFleetStreet'', who cast him in it. Since then, he has acted in many other British films and shows. He's known for portraying young Gellert Grindelwald in the ''Film/HarryPotter'' films, Jace Wayland in the film adaptation of ''Literature/TheMortalInstruments'', and Caius in the ''Film/{{Twilight}}'' film adaptations. Most recently, he played [[spoiler:Henry Creel a.k.a.]] Vecna in Season 4 of ''Series/StrangerThings''.

8In addition to acting, he has been the lead singer of two bands (The Darling Buds and Counterfeit) although both have since broken up. As of 2022 he is working on solo material, releasing an extended play and single.

33!!Tropes
34* BoastfulRap: Of a sort. His 2022 song "I Am" is a roots/folk song which is mostly spoken, and the second verse qualifies.
35-->"I'm devotion to the preacher, I'm the priest you want\
36I'm on the front side of the far side in the moonlit dark\
37I'm an angel, I'm the patron of the crash of sword\
38I'm an omen, I'm a showman, I'm the holy Lord."
39* TheOtherMarty: He played Ser Waymer Royce in the ''Series/GameOfThrones'' pilot episode, filmed in 2009, although when the first episode was reshot the role went to Rob Ostlere; Bower was unable to reprise the role due the filming schedule clashing with his starring role as Arthur in ''Camelot''.
40* RomanceOnTheSet:
41** He dated and was briefly engaged to fellow ''Harry Potter'' alumni Creator/BonnieWright from 2009 to 2012.
42** He dated his ''City of Bones'' co-star and onscreen love interest Creator/LilyCollins from 2012 to 2018.
43* WhatCouldHaveBeen: He was cast in a major role in a planned ''Game of Thrones'' prequel titled ''Bloodmoon'', but the series never made it past the pilot. He really doesn't have the best luck with Creator/GeorgeRRMartin's fantasy universe and Creator/{{HBO}}, considering he also had to drop out of the original series due to scheduling conflicts.
