Enjoy a 30-minute virtual meeting with Michael Johnston, star of Teen Wolf!
As a young child Michael Johnston was passionate about storytelling and performing. Growing up in rural North Carolina yet eager to start a professional career in the arts, he discovered the world of voiceover acting at the age of 12. Thanks to the internet and his mom’s credit card, he set up a home recording studio and started auditioning for commercials and animations. Before he knew it, he was running his own VO business.
After graduating high school early, Michael moved with his dad to Chicago where he furthered his acting study with classes at The Second City. Michael planned to start college, but 6 months after his move he decided to venture to Los Angeles on his own and get a jump on his on-camera career.
First he booked the independent feature film Bornless Ones. Then came a small role on MTV’s Awkward which weeks later led to a recurring regular role on MTV’s hit series Teen Wolf. All of a sudden, Michael was a working TV actor. He then starred in the cult classic film Slash which premiered at SXSW and found him playing opposite Hannah Marks, Michael Ian Black and Missi Pyle.
Other television credits include Pure Genius (CBS), Supergirl (CW) and The Inbetween (NBC). Most recently he can be seen in the Lionsgate film Endangered Species starring opposite Phil Winchester, Rebecca Romijn, and Jerry O’Connell.
All the while, Michael never gave up on his love for voiceover acting. He’s the series lead of Netflix One’s Zak Storm, he voices Dante in Marvel’s Avengers video game, and most recently he can be heard as Francis Vendetti in Annapurna Interactive’s The Artful Escape opposite Lena Headey, Carl Weathers, Jason Schwartzman and Mark Strong.
His love for the voiceover arts has also led him to singing. A vocal tenor who loves pop, jazz, the blues and country, Michael learned guitar and the joys of songwriting, and in 2020 released his first single “Trust Me.” Above all this, Michael is a certified goofball.
