Charles-Alexandre Dubé

After landing his very first credited screen role on the French-Canadian sitcom "Penthouse 5-0," Dube's career took off. That same year he scored a guest spot on the procedural drama "19-2" (Radio Canada, 2011-), and followed that up by appearing in the 2011 comedy "Starbuck." The film would go on to win several Genie Awards - the Canadian equivalent of the Oscars - thus thrusting Dubé onto the national stage for the first time in his still-fledgling career. Dube scored another hit in 2012 with "Liverpool," a romantic comedy that earned the film's director, Manon Briand, a Women in Film Award at that year's Vancouver International Film Festival. In 2013 Dube appeared as Francis Simard, a real-life figure that played a prominent role in a 1970 political uprising known collectively by Quebecers as the "October Crisis," in Alain Chartrand's "La maison du pêcheur." The film followed the events that took place among local activists in the summer prior to the crisis, and was released in September of 2013.
