His maternal grandfather was an Italian cruise ship captain, and his maternal grandmother was an Australian ballerina; his mother was brought up in London. Regbo has a younger brother named Louis. He attended Latymer Upper School in West London. His interest in acting started with plays at school; later on, he attended Young Blood Theatre Company.

In 2007, he played American teen spy Chad Turner in an episode of CBBC children's spy-fi adventure series M.I. High. He continued to pursue his acting career in 2009, when he played Michael Walton in Stephen Poliakoff's period drama Glorious 39. One of his most notable roles was in a science fiction drama Mr. Nobody, premiered in 2009. He played eponymous character Nemo Nobody (in his teenage years). He also played young Albus Dumbledore in the film Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1.
