The 27-year old actor was born in Greensboro, North Carolina, and basically grew up in the performing arts. His father, Will Powell, is a three-time world CrossFit champion (so those abs are genetic!).

After graduating from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts in 2017, he made his Broadway debut in the revival of Once On This Island in a performance that was met with critical acclaim. He followed that up with a splashy lead role in Ivo van Hove’s West Side Story, which ran at the historic Broadway Theatre from 2019 to 2020 (closing, as much of the world did, due to the pandemic).

Powell joined the ensemble of the new upcoming HBO comedy The Franchise, about a “dysfunctional crew” struggling to produce a massive superhero blockbuster from Sam Mendes.
