Cody Christian, yeah, that’s the name—Cody Christian—has definitely made a name for himself in the world of teen television drama. Over the years, Cody Christian built up a solid fanbase, especially among younger audiences, thanks to his compelling portrayals of complex, emotionally charged characters on hit shows like Pretty Little Liars and Teen Wolf. Born Cody Allen Christian on April 15, 1995, in Portland, Maine, he spent much of his early life on a reservation, being raised by his mother, who is part of the Penobscot Nation—a background that adds depth to his personal story.

Now, before he became widely recognized, Cody Christian was already working hard in the industry, starting out with short films and gradually moving into guest appearances on major TV series. You might remember him from True Blood or even a small role on Grey’s Anatomy—small parts, sure, but they helped lay the foundation. He also popped up in the Bruce Willis-led sci-fi flick Surrogates, which gave him a taste of the big screen.

Angry, intense, constantly clashing with his sister Aria, played by Lucy Hale. It was a breakout moment for Cody Christian, no doubt about it. His performance added real emotional weight to the show during its run from 2010 to 2017.

Once Liars wrapped up, Cody Christian smoothly transitioned into another supernatural teen drama—this time on Teen Wolf. There, he played Theo Raeken, a chilling, genetically modified werewolf with serious villain energy. Let’s just say he gave Tyler Posey’s Scott McCall a serious run for his money. And honestly, that role only boosted Cody Christian’s visibility even more.

With two major series under his belt, doors began opening wide. Cody Christian took on more diverse roles, including a standout performance in the dark, satirical thriller Assassination Nation (2018), where he played a teenager caught in a chaotic dystopian town. Around the same time, he starred in Notorious Nick (2018), delivering a powerful portrayal of a one-armed MMA fighter based on a true story—talk about range.

And then came All American, the CW sports drama inspired by the real-life journey of NFL player Spencer Paysinger. Since 2018, Cody Christian has been a series regular, playing a privileged high school football star in Beverly Hills whose world gets turned upside down when a talented new kid from South Central LA—played by Daniel Ezra—joins the team. Once again, Cody Christian showed he could carry a leading role with nuance and authenticity.

So whether he’s diving into psychological tension, supernatural conflict, or real-world struggles, Cody Christian continues to prove he’s more than just a pretty face—he’s got the talent to match. And honestly? We’re just getting started with what Cody Christian can do.

When he was just a teenager, this baby-faced leading man saw his career take off in a big way—thanks to his deeply moving performance as Ponyboy Curtis, the thoughtful greaser with a poet’s heart, in Francis Ford Coppola’s iconic film *The Outsiders* (1983). Howell truly captured audiences’ attention back then, emerging as a standout among the young cast. For a brief moment, it seemed like Howell was on the fast track to lasting fame, gracing the covers of teen magazines and building a loyal fanbase. But as quickly as it began, that Tiger Beat spotlight started to fade after only a few years. Though he appeared in modest successes like *Red Dawn* (1984) and the comedy *Soul Man* (1986), Howell’s trajectory shifted. By the late '80s and into the 1990s, many of his roles landed straight to video or filled out TV movie slots—not exactly the kind of projects that reignite blockbuster momentum. Looking back at the all-star ensemble from *The Outsiders*, it's clear that Howell’s early promise was later eclipsed by the massive careers of his peers: Ralph Macchio soared with *The Karate Kid*, Emilio Estevez became a Brat Pack icon, and Tom Cruise? Well, *Top Gun* turned him into a global superstar almost overnight. Still, despite the changing tides of Hollywood, Howell never stopped working. He embraced his path with quiet determination, appearing in more than 50 films over the years. And while not all of them were critical darlings, Howell consistently brought sincerity and depth to his roles. Even when the scripts weren’t award-worthy, Howell held his ground as a dependable and heartfelt performer. So while the world may have moved on, Howell kept showing up—proving that a true actor’s journey isn’t always about the spotlight, but about staying true to the craft.
