Young was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. His father Chip Young, an American born in Missouri, was a well-known CBC broadcaster and children's book author, as well as Composer of Canadian classic 'Honky The Christmas Goose' , while his mother is a nurse from Newcastle, Australia. His family left Toronto for Australia in 1981. Young attended Galston High and Australian Theatre For Young People as a teenager.

1991

Young was cast in his first role, as a young Jesuit priest in Bruce Beresford's acclaimed religious epic Black Robe (1991)on his 18th birthday. International acclaim followed and Young was dubbed 'the next Marlon Brando' in France and 'the next Mel Gibson' in Hollywood but returned to Australia to support the local industry and focus on projects that he was more drawn to.

1994

Young was nominated for an Australian Film Institute Best Actor award and won a Film Critics Circle of Australia Best Actor award for his role as the 'ratty-looking loser' Psycho Joe opposite Ben Mendelsohn in Metal Skin (1994), Geoffrey Wright's examination of suburban hopelessness and revhead subculture, which screened internationally in competition at Venice Film Festival and Stockholm Film Festival amongst others . One reviewer wrote that "Young's depiction of this unsettling metamorphosis is central to the film's success." Geoffrey Wright stated “There could be no dispute that he is one of the best actors in the country.”

Early 2000's saw him starring as a traumatized Canadian soldier in 'War Bride', a German priest in 'Serenades', and smaller roles in Crocodile Hunter Collision Course and a Doctor in Cox's Molokai.

2004

In 2004 he signed onto the Sydney Theatre Company production of Hedda Gabler as Cate Blanchett's tortured alcoholic lover Ejlert Lovberg. The production also had a 2006 season at Brooklyn Academy of Music and spawned documentary 'In The Company Of Actors'. .
