We had the opportunity to interview Christian Convery about his new Netflix show.
At only eleven years old, Christian Convery has made a name for himself as a young actor working alongside some of the biggest names in Hollywood. Christian’s film credits include Playing With Fire in which he starred opposite Judy Greer, John Cena, John Leguizamo and Keegan-Michael Key, with whom he greatly enjoyed doing improv with. Playing With Fire was also special to Christian as got to perform many of his own stunts such as being in an intense fire simulator, hoisted 30 feet into the air from a burning cabin, and lots of wire training. Christian also starred opposite Steve Carrell and Timotheé Chalamet in the 2018 film Beautiful Boy.
Since Christian booked his first project, he has showed no signs of slowing down. He starred in the Disney/Netflix series, Pup Academy and has also earned supporting roles in several projects such as Marvel’s Venom, Ben Stiller’s film Eggplant Emoji, The CW’s Supernatural, Syfy’s Van Helsing, FX’s Legion and Disney’s Descendants 3. Christian also has many other projects under his belt including films Coming Home For Christmas, My Christmas Dream, Signed, Sealed, De- livered, and Hearts of Spring.
In his free time he likes to hang out with his dog and play guitar. He also loves the great out- doors and all the activities and adventures that come with it including parkour, hiking, surfing, wake surfing, zip-lining, trapeze, rafting and running— and he is even a certified Padi Scuba Diver and Junior Lifeguard.
