After starring as the young version of dictator Coriolanus Snow in “The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes,” Tom Blyth became a fan-favorite. His performance received praise, and the film was a total box-office success, grossing $337.4 million worldwide.

The 29-year-old actor, who studied at Julliard School, has also starred as the titular character in the MGM+ series “Billy the Kid” (2022-). His other credits include “Scott and Sid” (2018), “Benediction” (2021) and a guest role in “The Gilded Age.”

In a conversation with Número Magazine, Blyth said that he is attracted to complex roles: “ They’re never just one thing, they’re a hero and a villain simultaneously. They’re brave and they’re brutal. I think I gravitate to these kinds of roles because they reflect the many dimensions of what it means to be human. So, which other tortured men he is set to portray next? All his upcoming projects.
