So, his fan base kept on growing geometrically. A year after The Beat Beneath My Feet, Nicholas also appeared as ‘Angelo’ in a TNT crime drama series entitled Legends which ran until the end of the year.
In 2016, Nicholas Galitzine caused quite some stir when he starred as Johnnie in the romantic dance flick entitled High Strung. A young British violinist playing for tips in a New York subway to make ends meet, Nick’s character became the centerpiece of attention in the romantic drama. For example, he got many more fans from people who were fascinated by his skills at playing the violin. Yet, others wondered if he was actually the one playing the musical instrument. This beautiful lead performance in the movie earned him further commendation from the audience.
