Although born in London, Elyes grew up in Canada, but later returned to UK and lived in Manchester and Bristol. He is of mixed descent, and his ancestry includes Algerian, Spanish, French, Dutch, Irish, Anglo-Indian and Portuguese. As a youngster, he went to St. Damian’s Roman Catholic Science College, and later attended Strodes College, the Oldham Theatre Workshop and the Northern Kids Theatre Company. During his studies of drama, Gabel left school to appear in the children’s fantasy sitcom “I Love Mummy”, which ran for one season in 2002, and consisted of 26 episodes. At the time, he also appeared in several stage productions of “West Side Story”, “Oliver!” and “The Diary of Anne Frank”, just starting-off his net worth.

However, his career truly took off after joining the cast of the TV series “Casualty” as Guppy Sandhu in 2004. The following year, he was nominated for Best Newcomer at the 2005 National Television Awards for his role, but after spending three years in the show, Elyes decided to leave the cast and pursue other acting ventures. He was then seen as Vimel in the BBC drama “Apparitions” alongside Martin Shaw, and in the TV horror series “Dead Set” as Danny, both aired in 2008. In January 2009, he started appearing as P.E. teacher Rob Cleaver in the school drama “Waterloo Road”, and roles in other sitcoms soon followed, including “The Borgias” in which he played Sultan Bayezid’s brother – Prince Djem, and others such as “Identity”, “Psychoville” and finally “Game of Thrones”, in which he had a recurring role throughout the second season for which he was nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award in 2012. In 2013, he played Detective Adam Lucas in “Body of Proof”, and appeared in the feature film “World War Z” later that year. His other notable film career includes roles in Spooks: The Greater Good” and Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar”. Since 2014, Gabel has been a regular cast member in the drama series “Scorpion”, based on Walter O Brien’s real life, which has recently been renewed for its third season.

When it comes to his private life, Elyes dated actress and singer Katharine McPhee from 2014 to 2016.
