There is a new face appearing on Ramsay Street next month as the Rodwell family expands.

Felix, brother of local cop Andrew Rodwell arrives in Erinsborough on March 6th. Whilst we don’t know much about Felix at the moment, from early teasers it appears that he finds an unusual connection to JJ Varga-Murphy after moving in with the Rodwell family.

JJ, of course, has many links to the Rodwell family already, the whole reason the Varga-Murphy’s arrived on Ramsay Street was because JJ incorrectly thought that Andrew was his father. More recently we have seen JJ develop an unrequited crush on the girl he once thought was his sister, Sadie.

Felix is played by Sydney-born actor James Beaufort. Prior to his Neighbours role, James has worked on a number of different TV shows and movies under various stage names including James McFay and James Maclurcan. As well as being a voice actor on animated series Psychotown, he is best-known for his portrayal of Mack Hartford/Red Overdrive Ranger within the Power Rangers universe, appearing in 32 episodes of Power Rangers Operation Overdrive between 2007-2008.

Felix’s debut can be seen on March 6th, but new episodes of Neighbours drop at 7am Monday-Thursday on Amazon Freevee and Amazon Prime Video.
