Dylan Schmid(I)

Dylan Schmid's performances have been described as affirming, intense and precise. Born in Victoria B.C., Dylan was showing these attributes at a young age. By the age of 6, after being told by his mother that movies are not, in fact, real life, Dylan begged his mother to submit him for an audition through a local newspaper. After being told by the casting executives that he needed experience to book the part, Dylan immersed himself in acting classes for a following 8 years afterwards. With an inherent and unstoppable growing love for the art, Dylan officially began pursuing his dream. His first "break" came when landing the role of young "Baelfire" opposite Robert Carlyle in ABC's long running hit series "Once Upon A Time". Since then he has secured roles in Fox's FRINGE, The Hubs' R.L. Stine's THE HAUNTING HOUR, and Freeform's BEYOND, etc... Most notably he starred as a series regular on Hulu's SHUT EYE for two seasons and starred opposite Thomas Jane in Netflix's adaptation of the Stephen King novella 1922. He then went on to recur in the FX/Hulu limited series A TEACHER followed up with another recur on TNT's SNOWPIERCER - an adaptation of Bong Joon-ho's 2013 hit film. Next up, he can be seen in Netflix's WOMAN OF THE HOUR, which recently premiered at TIFF '23 Special Presentations. Additionally, Dylan is in the process of finishing his own short film he wrote, co-directed and stars in.
