Well established American actor Kevin L. Johnson is a breakout star. Perhaps best known for his recurring role as Sam Dermody on the Netflix hit “Ozark,” Johnson is building a lasting legacy on our screens. Johnson began his acting career while studying at Clemson University. From there he worked as part of a theatre tech crew and set his eyes on the stage itself. Later he would take the lead role of Sam in the Clemson Little Theatre production of “Crossing Delancey.” Now with over thirty screen credits to his name, Johnson’s career is on a meteoric trajectory.
Finding his feet in one of the most challenging industry’s to crack, Johnson has soared in his craft. From landing a role in the Tom Cruise lead film “American Made” to the thriller “Jacob’s Ladder” and “American Animals,” Johnson has displayed his versatility on the screen. Johnson has also appeared in “One Tree Hill,” “Finding Carter,” “Reckless” and “The Resident.” Johnson’s big break came in early 2016 when he made his audition tape for “Ozark.” Unbeknown to Johnson at the time, taking that call from his agent would change his life forever. Now three seasons in, Johnson has become one of the most pivotal and loved characters on the show.
The future looks bright for Johnson. Having recently completed the crime-drama “Blue Ridge” and horror-thriller “Don’t Look There,” Johnson is about to make his mark. With a range of projects waiting in the wings, Johnson will be entertaining audiences for years to come.
