Ethan Browne is a New Zealand born actor who portrays Tane Parata in Home and Away.
Early Life[]
Ethan grew up in a small town called Wairoa in New Zealand, and always dreamed of being an actor from a young age.
Ethan is of Maori descent. As a child he loved watching movies, particularly martial arts movies, which sparked his early passion for acting and martial arts. He would often re-enact fight scenes in the backyard with his brother and cousins for fun. Ethan grew up in a musical family and began playing multiple instruments from a young age, performing in bands during his teen years. Aged 16, he had a dramatic turning point in his life and became the father to his beautiful daughter Aaylah. This shifted his focus away from his own dreams and wanting to be a good provider for his daughter, he decided to pursue a career in civil engineering. After years of being unsatisfied with work, Ethan decided to rekindle his dream of being an actor.[1]
