Frewer was born in Washington, D.C., the son of Gillian Anne (née German) and Frederick Charlesley Frewer, a Canadian naval Officer. He was raised in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada, and trained at the famous Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, graduating from its three-year acting course in 1980. It was announced in November 2007 that Frewer would be playing villain Moloch the Mystic in the film adaptation of the Comic book series Watchmen.
He holds dual U.S./Canadian citizenship. When not on location, he and his wife, Amanda Hillwood, and their daughter, divide their time between Malibu, California, and the Gatineau Hills of Quebec.
Born in Washington D.C. and raised in Canada, Frewer attended the same Peterborough, Ontario area high school as his "PSI Factor: Chronicles of the Paranormal" (1996) co-star Barclay Hope. He trained for the stage in England, spending several years in such varied UK productions as "The Glass Menagerie", "Bent" and "A Comedy of Errors". He has performed in dozens of feature films, TV movies and series. A committed environmentalist, Frewer is a spokesperson for the Rainforest Action Network.
