Called "this year's rising star to watch" is Chinese-American queer actor Terry Hu (pronouns they/them) who stands out as a love interest on Max’s drama series “The Girls on the Bus” and in Hulu’s comedy film “Prom Dates”. Terry has previously made headlines for playing the first live-action non-binary character in a hit Disney movie franchise Zombies 3,” and has previously been seen on Netflix’s “Never Have I Ever.”

Terry  is a first-generation Chinese-American queer actor from New Jersey. Terry was always told that there wouldn't be any roles for them in Hollywood and was encouraged to focus on school instead. While they did take this advice, eventually getting a Neuroscience degree from UCLA and getting into the top Physical Therapy schools in the nation, they ultimately took a leap of faith and turned down grad school to pursue their childhood dream of acting. 

Fortunately, this leap paid off. Within a year, they won ABC's nationwide Digital Talent Competition and received their first Netflix lead role audition. Though they didn't book, it was still a huge win to them, given that they used to regularly google "how to audition for Netflix" (true story). Shortly after, they booked the lead in the Oscar-qualifying short film "Americanized" and the rest is..."history"..in quotes because they know this is just the beginning, and are so excited and grateful to keep going!
