Colt Prattes

Colt Prattes—yeah, the guy with those piercing eyes and the jawline that could probably cut glass—hails from Marietta, Georgia. He’s not just some pretty face you spot on a poster at the mall, either. No, this dude’s been around the block. Most people started buzzing about him after he strutted his stuff in the 2017 remake of Dirty Dancing. You remember that, right? The one where everyone was super skeptical about anyone touching Swayze’s legacy? Well, Colt just went for it. He wasn’t trying to be Patrick Swayze (and thank god for that—who could?), but he brought his own spin to Johnny, all brooding and intense. Some folks said he nailed the dance moves, others just couldn’t get over his smolder. But his resume doesn’t stop there. He popped up in This Is Us—that show that’s basically engineered in a lab to make you ugly-cry about family secrets. And then there’s The Merry Gentlemen, which dropped in 2024. He keeps surprising people, honestly, because he seamlessly bounces between genres. One minute he’s making you swoon, next minute he’s got you wondering what twist is lurking around the corner. Off-screen? Oh, he’s been locked down since 2013, married to Angelina Mullins. Yeah, they’re kind of a power couple, both super talented and way too good-looking for their own good. Colt’s got that Southern charm, but he brings some grit too, which probably explains why directors keep calling him up. He’s the type of actor who doesn’t scream “Hollywood,” but sort of sneaks up on you, then suddenly you’re like, “Wait, why is this guy in everything good lately?”
