Dylan O'Brien

The very well known (and extremely attractive) Dylan O'Brien has been on the rise lately. His amazing performances on and off screen have grown him an incredible fan base that continues to rise, and his recently released movie The Maze Runner has made him the talk of many. Others though, such as myself, have been hooked since his first appearance in Teen Wolf. However, either way, Dylan O'Brien has made himself a great reputation that will last him a lifetime as we all, and many more to come, continue to watch his grace, poise, kindness, and intelligence throughout his career.

"Dylan O'Brien was born in New York City, to Lisa  Rhodes, a former actress who also ran an acting school, and Patrick O'Brien, a camera operator" IMDB says. His birthdate is August 26th 1991, making him 23 years  old this year. Although he grew up in Springfield Township, New Jersey, at the age of twelve he moved to Hermosa Beach, California where his career would take off. At fourteen, he began posing original videos onto his YouTube channel. "With the videos developing, a local producer/director approached him about doing work for a web series of hers" (Wikipedia). As he pursued working on the web series O'Brien  met an actor who connected him with a manager. He went through multiple auditions before getting the main role on MTV's Teen Wolf. However, after reading the script he decided he wanted to audition for the role of Stiles instead. After four auditions he was cast. It was then in 2011 that he began playing the role of Stiles in Teen Wolf.  In 2013 he co-starred in the comedy film The Internship with Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson, which eventually lead him to his lead role of The Maze Runner in 2014.

In addition to his outstanding career accomplishments O'Brien has won several awards. He won the Giffoni Experience Award at the Giffoni International Film Festival in 2014. The same year he also won the Teen Choice award for best TV villain at, you guessed it, the Teen Choice Awards. Yahoo! Movies recently named O'Brien as one of the 15 Breakout Stars to watch for in 2014. As for his last award, also won in 2014, O'Brien won the Young Hollywood Award for Breakthough Actor at, yes once again the very obvious, Young Hollywood Awards.

Many are entranced and ecstatic to continue to watch his amazing career and life unfold as not only an incredible actor, but and inspiring person as well.
