Phi Vu was born on November 21, 1991, in the vibrant city of New Orleans, Louisiana, where the rhythms of jazz and the flavors of Creole cuisine likely influenced his artistic inclinations from a young age.
Best known for his captivating portrayal of Ryan in the Blumhouse/Universal horror films Happy Death Day (2017) and Happy Death Day 2U (2019),directed by the talented Christopher Landon, Phi's acting career has been a significant departure from his initial plans to pursue a career in the medical field.
However, after recognizing his genuine passion and drive for dance, Phi made a drastic career shift, dedicating himself to mastering the art form. In 2010, he began his dance training by watching YouTube videos and practicing tirelessly in his bedroom, sans mirror, an unconventional yet effective approach that allowed him to hone his skills.
His relentless efforts paid off when his impressive dancing abilities landed him a role in Perfect Pitch 2 in 2014, an experience that sparked a new focus and a genuine pursuit of acting. Since then, Phi has brought his unique energy, comedic timing, and authenticity to the entertainment industry, making a lasting impact on those who have had the pleasure of working with him.
Today, Phi resides in Los Angeles, California, with his loving wife and loyal canine companion, surrounded by the creative energy of the city that has become his second home.
