My Take
Thomas Doherty came up through that Disney Channel-to-prestige pipeline and, to his credit, actually made the jump. Harry Hook in Descendants is where a lot of younger fans found him, but Max Wolfe in the HBO Max Gossip Girl reboot is the role that recast him as a proper grown-up leading man. He's Scottish, Edinburgh-born 1995, schooled at the Royal High School, not American as the data lists. There's a charm and a slight danger to his screen presence that suits morally slippery characters. I'd like to see him in something grittier; the range hints he's got more under the hood.
