About Me
My name is Daniel Hopkins and I am a SAG-AFTRA actor from Mandeville, Louisiana, represented by Fameagency
​
I come from a theatre and improv comedy background and started working in the film industry in 2015 (background and stand-in). I worked my way up to speaking roles in independent films, student films, and the 48 Hour Film Project.
​
I have been a student of Jim Gleason at 'The Working Actor's Studio' for five years and I work with a personal trainer to build and maintain the level of fitness required for action roles.
I seek to constantly improve both my primary and secondary skills.
