10 Actors Who Began Their Career In A Soap Opera
7. Dean Geyer
TV star Dean Geyer might be known for playing Rachel Berry's New York-based cheat of a boyfriend in Glee, but before his appearance on the Fox dramedy's fourth season, Geyer was serenading a very different Rachel on Neighbours.
His character, Ty Harper, was an important part of Neighbours between 2008 and 2009 and featured in some pretty big storylines. His relationship with Rachel Kinski led to an on-screen musical performance between the two characters, as they sung Geyer's own 'Unforgettable' - a moment that has since become one of the soap's most-loved. Ty also engaged in a relationship with soap mainstay Libby Kennedy.
After leaving Australia for the bright lights of America, Geyer would feature in Fox TV series Terra Nova, before landing his biggest role to date on Glee.
