about me
Wes Mutsaars knew from an early age that he wanted to be an actor. Yet he first took a different adventurous path before he started acting.

After graduating from high school, Wes decided to look for extreme adventure and became a professional soldier in the Marine Corps.

Gain life experience
The choice to join the Marine Corps gave Wes an irreplaceable dose of life experience, which still serves him daily in the acting profession. Exercises in Norway, living in Curaçao, deployment to Afghanistan. Eventually Wes made it to corporal, which made him a manager.
 During this intensive period, acting started to tickle again, so that after nine years he finally made the switch and switched completely to the acting profession.

Learn the real trade
His backpack filled with life experience, Wes started taking acting lessons at the Trap, Act2Act and various masterclasses from Willeke van Ammelrooy and Karim Traidia, among others. During these lessons he fell in love with acting and was sure that this is his greatest passion.

Recent acting experience
Last year Wes played the leading role in the new Dutch drama series 'Het Imperium', made by the young producer Lucio Messercola. The series was shown on RTL 8. Wes also played a supporting role in the international film 'Tula the Revolt' in 2013 together with well-known actors such as Henriëtte Tol, Jeroen Krabbé, Derek de Lint, Jeroen Willems and Danny Glover. The year ended on an encouraging note for Wes when he was awarded the title of 'Best Actor' at the annual 48 Hour Film Festival in Leeuwarden.

Wes is currently also active as a training actor for various aggression training courses at KLM and the KLPD, among others.
