Biography
Dylan McTee was born in Los Angeles, California, to Cathleen Carriere and Gregory McTee. His mother, a Los Angeles native, is of Indigenous Mexican and French ancestry while his father is of Irish descent. At a very young age, and with the loving support of his parents and two brothers, Dylan obsessed over films and novels, and excelled in reading, writing, and performance in local theater. Feeling the need to participate in story even more, and particularly inspired by the acting of Daniel Day-Lewis, his life path was clear.
Still a child, Dylan begged his parents to allow him to pursue acting professionally, but they insisted he complete his studies, including acquiring a college degree, first. He thus devoted the ensuing years to the study and practice of his craft and, immediately upon graduation from The University of Southern California's School of Dramatic Arts, leapt headlong into his career.
One of his first auditions was for Sweet/Vicious (2016), a controversial series about sexual assault on college campuses. Dylan played a likable, charismatic character revealed only late in the season as a sociopathic rapist. Next, Dylan starred in the independent film Midnighters (2017), from the Ramsay Brothers. The Wind (2018), a western/horror film directed by Emma Tammi, is Dylan's second film. He plays Gideon Harper, a young settler in the late 1800s whose life falls apart soon after moving out west with his wife.
You can now watch Dylan on The CW's Roswell, New Mexico (2019) as Wyatt Long, a troubled and depraved rancher, and also starring in the reboot of an iconic horror franchise Wrong Turn (2021).
Outside of his acting profession, Dylan loves martial arts, writing poetry, and going camping with his rescue dog, Hal.
