Dylan Ray Talon

Dylan Ray Talon isn’t exactly one of those guys you can easily box in—his work’s got range, and honestly, he’s been popping up in some of the most talked-about Filipino films of the last few years. You might’ve caught him in “Ang Duyan ng Magiting” (2023), which, let’s be real, pulls no punches when it comes to tackling the whole mess that is modern-day heroism and the tangled web of politics. The dude’s got this way of making you actually care about the character, like you’re not just watching some actor recite lines. There’s a realness there. Then there’s “Gusto Kita With All My Hypothalamus” (2018). That one’s just wild. It’s not your usual rom-com. It’s more like a love letter to Manila, sweaty, chaotic, and a little bit off-kilter, kind of like Manila itself. Dylan just slides into his role with this laid-back energy, but you can tell he’s got layers. The film’s quirky, poetic, and has those moments that make you go, “Wait, did that really just happen?” Don’t even get me started on “GomBurZa” (2023). Heavy stuff. The movie digs into a dark slice of Philippine history, and Dylan’s performance stands out. He doesn’t overdo it, just lets the gravity of the story settle in. He’s not the kind of actor who needs to shout to get your attention—he just owns the screen, quietly, which is honestly harder than it looks. In short, Dylan Ray Talon brings a certain raw unpredictability to every project. He’s one to watch.
