ABOUT

My name is Demetri Landell. I am an  actor, writer, producer and director in Atlanta, Georgia.

I'm a kind, wise, determined, inspirational, and empowering individual with special needs that doesn't define me, however, it has helped me to become the person and actor I continue to work hard to be. I have an inspiring yet, very unique story about myself that many other special needs individuals may relate to. As a child, I was unable to live a normal childhood due to overcoming health problems and being in the children's hospital repeatedly. Some people would wrongfully doubt my abilities by saying such things as "he won't be able to do the same things as other people can do", however, I proved the opposite. I developed many lifelong skills with determination to be the insprintional individual I am today. One example would be back in 2011 when I was in the 9th grade I was a lonely individual having a hard time recovering from my health issues which left me feeling lonely and unsure about what I was capable of doing. Then one day around the same time that year I decided to create hilarious videos and post them on YouTube just for fun. Those videos spread rapidly at my school and turned me into a popular individual. Due to some reoccuring and unforseen health issues, the continuation of a few different schools became hard to manage as I was falling behind in my studies while my videos kept becoming popular. Then in 2013 I was able to transfer to another high school that provided me with a bit more help in bringing up my grades. With the support and encouragement of my family by my side, I was given the hope to keep working hard, not give up, and to believe in myself that I decided to work persistently to get where I wanted to go. I found more of my own strength in my capabilities for learning more and more about myself and my studies that one day in a meeting with one of my teachers, myself, and my family were informed that due to all my hard work I had earned enough credits to skip a couple of grades and graduate with the class of 2016. I decided after all my hard work in high school, that I have many things to offer the world including but not limited to my attentive efforts, determination, eagerness to succeed, and my uniqueness that I set my sites on my acting profession which has given me the chance to work on set of many film productions to start my acting career by becoming an actor, writer, director, and producer. I've appeared in many films and television shows that include Diary of a Wimpy Kid, The Long Haul, Life of the Party, Black Panther, Avengers, Infinity War, Thor Ragnarok, My Story of Sam, and Rampage. I will continue to work hard with the determination and eagerness to learn and succeed along the way while inspiring and Empowering others in my community. he also serves as a homless ministry volunteer  serving the homeless individuals  and hes the founder of a Facebook group called aspiring actor's actress's and filmmaker's stories and hes also a  Co-founder of a facebook group called ATL Film consulting aka ( ATL Film & stage. )
