Sharman was born and raised in Hackney, London. He started acting as a child at the age of nine when he auditioned for the Royal Shakespeare Company and was selected out of hundreds of other children. Of his venture into the dramatic arts, he stated: "I just adored it. Between Macbeth and Henry VI with all of the armour and the blood and everything, it was just fantastic as a kid. It was the best thing ever." Sharman stayed with the Royal Shakespeare Company for two plays: The Park in 1995 (age 9) and Macbeth in 1996 (age 10). Sharman attended Mill Hill School and also the Arts Educational School, both in London. During his school years, he acted in the play "Kvetch" that made it to the Edinburgh Fringe festival. He also acted in the touring play The Winslow Boy in 2002 at age 16. For three years, from 2004 to 2007, Sharman studied at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, gaining a Bachelor of Arts degree in acting and graduating with honors. After that, he performed in many theatrical productions in London and Europe.

Sharman's first feature film role was in the independent film The Last Days of Edgar Harding, in which he played a musician. In 2010, he was cast as Ares, the Greek god of war, in the fantasy film Immortals; the film was released in 2011. Sharman initially had difficulty transition to acting on film, as he found it "odd and unnatural", but he eventually adjusted. Sharman also appeared in the horror film The Collection, released in November 2012. • Illustration — Sharman at San Diego Comic-Con in 2013 Sharman's television credits include roles in Judge John Deed, Inspector Lewis and the television films Starting Over and When Calls the Heart.

In the following year, Sharman narrated the audiobook version of Cassandra Clare's young adult novel Clockwork Princess, the third and final installment of her Infernal Devices trilogy. In March 2014, after the season 3 finale, it was announced that Sharman would be leaving Teen Wolf as he wanted to explore other opportunities. He joined The Originals as the recurring character Kaleb Westphall in May 2014.

On 10 August 2017, it was reported that Sharman had been cast in the lead role in Medici: The Magnificent. He portrays Lorenzo de' Medici for the planned two season run of the series. The two seasons of Medici: The Magnificent serve as the second and third season of the Medici franchise and are set 20 years after the events of the loosely connected first season, named Medici: Masters of Florence.
