Dominic Sessa
Dominic Sessa is an American actor who rocketed to fame with his professional acting debut as the troubled, intellectually gifted teenager Angus Tully in the 2023 Alexander Payne-directed film, The Holdovers. Born on October 25, 2002, in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, Sessa was a student at Deerfield Academy, a Massachusetts boarding school, when he was discovered by a casting director who was scouting the campus for actors, making his entry into the industry remarkably non-traditional. His acclaimed performance in The Holdovers earned him widespread recognition and several accolades, including the Critics' Choice Movie Award for Best Young Performer and a nomination for the BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role. Sessa is currently a student at the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama and has quickly built a robust slate of upcoming projects. These include roles in the 2025 comedy film Tow, the sequel Now You See Me: Now You Don't, the Christmas movie Oh. What. Fun. where he plays the role of Sammy Clauster, and the lead role of the late chef Anthony Bourdain in the highly-anticipated biopic, Tony.
