Neil Stephens

My name is Neil G. Stephens. I am an Englishman, I acquired my US citizenship a couple of years ago. I migrated to America as a professional boxer and enjoyed a successful career, even ranking as a world contender. I gained considerable media exposure through interviews, televised fights, and a documentary that traced my journey from the hospital post-fight to training, and then to a victorious knockout. I became comfortable in front of the camera and developed a knack for improvisational acting. This was before the advent of social media and YouTube, but there are still some clips available on my reel. I have been acting for about 1 and half years now. As a trainer in Hollywood, I was often advised to give acting a try. When my businesses succumbed to Covid overnight, I decided to heed that advice. I have truly enjoyed my acting journey and have a deep love for the movie business. I have experienced great success and received positive feedback for my performances. My roles have ranged from background parts to principal and speaking roles. My favorite role so far has been that of a dubious arms dealer in a Netflix movie, 'Pepsi Points', where I had to utilize my improvisation skills and perform stunts. I portrayed a suave version of Death himself in a stylish Chinese Film Noir, a role that demanded a lot of dialogue and emotional depth. I love playing the villain, but I am equally capable of portraying wholesome and fatherly characters. Currently, I am taking acting lessons from an old friend and former client, who is a renowned actor with over 50 years of experience in Hollywood and has starred in more than 120 films and theater productions.
