With each new television series season, there are shows that come in and, on the surface, seem like they probably will not make the cut, but then you get a glimpse at the casting list and read about the storyline and plot. The more information you get about a particular show the more interested you become in just how it will play out and your inquisitive nature kicks in – you want to know if they will be able to pull it off. Now you are hooked. One show that has this type of appeal is “Will,” a show that takes viewers inside the life of a young and vibrant William Shakespeare. In addition to Laurie Davidson, who plays the lead role, the casting director did an exceptional job putting the supporting pieces together. One actor that is a part of the cast is Mattias Inwood.
Outside of getting thousands of votes for internet boyfriend from his female fans, there are some other things that you probably didn’t know about Mattias Inwood.
1. He Is An Up and Coming Grinder
Yes, there are some entertainers that get discovered in an airport or restaurant and get thrust into stardom, but that is not the way things usually work. Actors fight and struggle to learn their craft – pushing through disappointment and delay. It is not easy for newcomers, and things have been no different for Mattias Inwood. While he is considered an up and comer, he has been working. Currently, he is probably best known for his role in the Shannara Chronicles, but it is almost certain that his role as Richard Burbage in Shakespeare will garner plenty of attention.
2. He Dominates Social Media
For entertainers and all other types of celebrities, social media is like a gold mine. For those who learn how to optimize their social media platforms, the sky is the limit as far as the capacity to build their brand and notoriety. Mattias is doing exceptionally well on social media, especially when it comes to Instagram and Twitter. He also has a Facebook fan page. Social media platforms allow celebrities to interact with their fans, and Mattias is taking full advantage of it.
3. He Wants to Be Viewed as More Than Eye Candy
With so much talent roaming around Hollywood, one thing young up and coming actors and actress attempt to avoid is getting pigeonholed or typecast as a certain type of actor. While Mattias is enjoying all of the attention he is getting from the ladies, he would much rather be known for his depth and skill as an actor. He is relatively new, but he knows that handsome jocks come a dime a dozen and he will not be the flavor of choice forever.
4. He Made the Barefoot and Shirtless Lineup
While Mattias is working hard not become typecast as just another good looking kid in Hollywood, the truth is that is his current call to fame. He made the Barefoot and Shirtless list, which is either good or bad depending on where you are standing. For an actor that is attempting to be taken seriously, it is not necessarily something that should impress him. At the same time, it keeps him in front of his fans.
5. Will is the Payday
To this point, the resume that Mattias Inwood has built as been relatively thin as far as substance is concerned, but it has put him in front of an audience that has embraced him. The truth is that “Will” has the momentum and fan base to really give Mattias a strong push as far as his career goes. It also has the depth to allow him to be taken seriously, especially if the show is as big of a hit as everyone is predicting.
