Freddie Thorp stars as Riven on “Fate: The Winx Saga,” the rebellious and sharp-edged specialist-in-training at Alfea whose confidence, sarcasm, and unpredictable behavior make him a disruptive presence among the students. Skilled, restless, and often difficult to read, Riven moves through the school’s social world with a mix of charm and defiance. His complicated friendships and rivalries help add tension, danger, and emotional volatility to life at Alfea.
Before joining “Fate: The Winx Saga,” Thorp builds his acting career through film and television roles in the United Kingdom and abroad. His credits include the action film “Overdrive,” where he plays Garrett Foster, as well as the Netflix thriller “Safe,” where he appears as Chris Chahal. These roles help establish him as a rising actor with experience in both action-driven and dramatic storytelling.
In addition to his screen work, Thorp appears in projects such as “A Discovery of Witches” and other film and television productions that expand his range as a performer. His ability to portray confidence, intensity, and emotional guardedness makes him especially well suited for the darker fantasy tone of “Fate: The Winx Saga.”
As “Fate: The Winx Saga” begins, Thorp brings charisma, edge, and restless energy to the role of Riven. On the series, he adds conflict, attitude, and complexity to the world of Alfea while portraying a young specialist shaped by loyalty, insecurity, and the pressure to prove himself.
