Sam Earle is a Toronto-based actor, best known for playing teen father K.C. Guthrie in seasons 8 through 12 of Degrassi: The Next Generation (2001), and mass killer Tom in Game of Death (2017). The offspring of Second City alumnae Chris Earle and Shari Hollett, and older brother to Lucy Earle, Sam got an early start on stage in Russell Hill at the Tarragon theatre.

He played disembodied sound engineer Mike in the Winnipeg and Vancouver stops on Radio: 30's national Fringe tour. Sam writes, produces, and records vocals for conceptual electro-pop two-piece Loji, and has worked with boundary-pushing R&B and hip-hop artist Jade. He has performed and DJ'd at various independent music venues throughout Toronto, and has produced ambient soundscapes and electronic soundtracks for several independent theatre productions. He appears occasionally as an actor in Alan Kliffer's improv cabaret Mixed Company at Comedy Bar.
