Meyne Wyatt

Meyne Wyatt was born in Kalgoorlie in 1989, to Sue, a painter and children's book illustrator, and Brian, who worked for the National Native Title Council. His father was a Yamatji man, while his mother is from the Wongatha group, and Wyatt is the youngest of four siblings. He attended Hale School in Perth from the age of 13.

After leaving Hale, Wyatt completed a theatre course at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA). He auditioned for full-time places at WAAPA and the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA), and was accepted into both. He decided to attend NIDA and graduated in 2010. Following his graduation from NIDA, Wyatt appeared in several theatre productions in Sydney, Adelaide and Brisbane. He won the Best Newcomer accolade at the 2011 Sydney Theatre Awards for his performance as an Aboriginal teenager in Lachlan Philpott's production of Silent Disco. In 2012, Wyatt was cast in the supporting role of Jimmy Middleton in the musical comedy film The Sapphires.Wyatt also made his debut with the Bell Shakespeare company, in a production of The School for Wives.

In early 2013, Wyatt starred in the lead role of Ralph Meyers's production of Peter Pan at the New Victory Theater. In that same year, Wyatt filmed a supporting role in The Broken Shore, a television miniseries based on Peter Temple's 2005 novel of the same name. He also appeared in the film adaptation of Tim Winton's short story collection The Turning. Wyatt played Frank Leaper, a footballer "who walks away at a key moment of his career", in the segment titled Family, which was directed by Shaun Gladwell.

Wyatt appeared in the second season of Redfern Now as a father whose newborn baby goes missing. He was initially cast in the first season of the drama, but had to drop out due to a scheduling conflict.

In 2014 Wyatt also joined the cast of feature film Strangerland, alongside Nicole Kidman and Joseph Fiennes.

On 20 July 2014, it was announced that Wyatt had joined the cast of long-running soap opera Neighbours as Nate Kinski. Wyatt is the first Indigenous actor to join the main cast since the show began in 1985. Executive producer Jason Herbison stated the decision to cast an Indigenous actor was "unintentional" and that Wyatt had been the best actor for the role. Wyatt relocated to Melbourne for filming and made his screen debut as Nate on 18 August 2014. Wyatt began appearing in the six-part sketch-comedy show Black Comedy in November 2014.

Wyatt took a break from Neighbours to appear in a Sydney Theatre Company production of King Lear, alongside Geoffrey Rush from November 2015 to January 2016. Wyatt's father died from throat cancer in October, causing him to miss the first two weeks of rehearsals. The director, Neil Armfield, briefly considered re-casting the role of Edmund, as he was concerned that Wyatt would find it hard to play a man who plots to murder his father. However, Wyatt found the play "a good distraction". Wyatt also appeared in the feature film What If It Works?.

Wyatt left Neighbours in early 2016 and his character's last scenes aired in June that year. In 2017, Wyatt appeared in the American series The Leftovers, which was filmed in Australia. In 2018, he was a regular in the television drama series Mystery Road as Cedric Thompson.
