Darren spent the first half of his life in Scotland and immigrated to Australia at age 12. Always having a propensity for acting, he would quite often fake illnesses to avoid school. One class he would never miss, however, was Drama. His continued love of the arts sees him studying with the likes of Warner Loughlin and Larry Moss. Darren's career spans three continents and he can currently be seen on TV shows in the UK, Australia and America. His career started at MTV, where he both hosted and acted in shows that he helped create. His first adventure into prime time, network television, came as the host of the quirky and irreverent game show 'Minute To Win It' in Australia; a show that would later catapult his career into the UK, when he was asked to host the local version for ITV. Darren's quick wit and sharp comedic timing, made him a perfect fit to host BBC1's Saturday night, live show 'The Magicians'. His breakout role in America was on NBC's prime-time 'Love in the Wild.' McMullen has also been host of 'The Voice' and 'The Voice Kids' in Australia over five seasons with coaches such as Ricky Martin, Seal, Kylie Minogue, Keith Urban, Mel B and Will.I.Am. In 2014, McMullen joined the star-studded cast of House Husbands, one of Australia's top rating dramas. Darren plays the much-loved character 'Alex Larden', who has explored some very topical issues on the show, including gay marriage and surrogacy. In his National Geographic show 'Darren McMullen's Outsiders' we see Darren traveling the world to meet some very interesting characters; from time-traveling Italians (The Damanhur), to Alien worshipers (The Raelians). We see some very different sides to Darren, as he fully immerses himself into the lives of the weird and wondering sub cultures he explores. Darren currently lives in Los Angeles and is putting the finishing touches on two screenplays, romantic comedy 'The Rebound Guy' and drama 'Fade To Black'.
