David Lyons

David Lyons? Oh, the guy’s been busy. You might’ve caught him in Habit (2021), where he gets tangled up in that wild blend of chaos and questionable decisions—nobody in that film walks away clean, let’s just say. Then there’s The Fix (2024), which, honestly, feels like someone took a classic crime thriller and sprinkled in just enough modern grit to keep you guessing. Lyons slips right into these dark, twisty roles, always managing to look like he’s carrying secrets you probably don’t want to know. But man, The Dirty South (2023) is a different beast altogether. That movie tosses you straight into the humid, backwater drama of America’s underbelly. It’s all family feuds, small-town grudges, and the kind of desperation that makes people do dumb, dangerous stuff. Lyons doesn’t just act—he sweats out every scene, his character chewing through regret and resentment like old gum. You can almost smell the muddy riverbank, hear the cicadas buzzing while everyone’s plotting their next move. He brings that simmering tension, like he’s ready to blow but somehow holds it together until the very last second. What’s wild is how Lyons bounces between these gritty, raw stories, always sinking his teeth into the tough roles. He’s not your standard pretty-boy lead—there’s always something a little unhinged, a little haunted in his eyes. Whether he’s dodging bullets or just trying to keep his head above water, you get the sense he’s seen some stuff. If you’re into movies that aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty, his filmography is basically a goldmine.
