Ethan Browne

Ethan Browne joined Home and Away in 2020 as Tane Parata. His character was introduced as part of the first Māori family on the show, and Tane was initially a "cheeky" and "mischievous" character who was very family-oriented but would often rebel against his older brother, Ari. Browne began his acting career later in life. After finishing school, he studied to become a personal trainer and later a civil engineer, working as a civil draftsman for a time. He then decided to pursue his dream of acting, taking acting classes and auditioning for the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA). He was accepted into NIDA and graduated in 2019, landing his role as Tane on Home and Away shortly after.
