Max Brown was known as Kristian Hargreaves, a character he portrayed on the soap Hollyoaks from 2002 to 2004. He depicted an intelligent and charming student who studied molecular biology at Hollyoaks Community College. Upon his arrival on campus, he caught the attention of Izzy Cornwell, Becca Hayton, Lisa Hunter and Jodie Nash. Although many women were attracted to him, he failed to prolong his relationships, which sparked his reputation as a womanizer. He finally got a taste of his own medicine when he dated Stacey Foxx, who was always on his case and had an annoying laugh. His irritation eventually led him to transfer to another university, thus putting an end to his character's storyline. Later this year, the 26-year-old actor will be gracing the big screen with two new thriller films.
