Mason Wells, the 11-year-old actor, has been captivating audiences with his on-screen performances and striking red curly hair since the age of 7. With an impressive 12-film and five-television-series resume, he is set to star in his highest-profile project yet, the CBS multi-cam comedy "How We Roll," premiering on March 31 at 9:30 p.m. ET/PT, where he will play the role of Sam.
Wells' acting range is evident in his work, having already won awards for his roles in short films. He is currently working on two feature films, "Possessions" and "Furry Fortune," which showcase his ability to master opposite genres - horror and family comedy. In "Possessions," he stars alongside Clive Standen and Yeardley Smith, while in "Furry Fortune," he takes on the role of Odom Kearst.
Justin Ward, writer and director of "Furry Fortune," praises Wells' range, stating that he is the rare child actor who can effortlessly transition between playing a mischievous villain and a lovable, curly-haired kid next door.
Brent Cote, director of "Possessions," commends Wells for his exceptional work ethic, noting that he operates on a much higher maturity level than his peers. Cote expresses his enthusiasm for working with Wells again, stating that he believes the child actor will be a special talent in the industry.
In addition to his acting career, Wells is an active and adventurous individual who enjoys competitive tennis, parkour, and indoor rock climbing. He also loves to read, build LEGOs, and explore science, which he had the opportunity to do on six episodes of "Emily's Wonder Lab" on Netflix.
