Alan Ritchson

Alan Ritchson has carved a space for himself on both the large and small screens since he made the trek from a small town in Florida to Los Angeles.  Frequently relocating as the middle son of a military family, Alan learned to adapt and entertain in order to build friendships in new and unfamiliar environments.  Certainly this has been a key ingredient in his success so far in the industry.

Alan's early credits include portraying 'Aquaman' in the long running series Smallville.  This marked the first portrayal of the superhero in an officially licensed live-action production. Ritchson has also taken on a grittier leading man role in the independent film market with the modern-day western Rex.

In contrast, he also made quite a comedic impression with his love-to-hate-him Thad Castle character on the football comedy Blue Mountain State.  He parlayed his comedic skills to work with Rebel Wilson in her CBS pilot Super Fun Night.

Alan can be seen as the District 1 victor, Gloss, in Catching Fire; the second installment of the hugely successful Hunger Games franchise, and in 2014 as 'Raphael,' the cool but crude Ninja Turtle, in the Michael Bay/Paramount Studios Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles franchise.
