ACTOR-ACTIVIST

Nickelodeo­n’s “Nicky, Ricky, Dicky and Dawn” star looks to break out in the upcoming Netflix show “The Umbrella Academy,” based on the popular comic book. “I play a 58-yearold time-traveling assassin who’s stuck in a 13-year-old body,” he says. “It’s such an honor to bring this character to life from the graphic novel. It’s dramatic, comedic and actionpack­ed.” A fervent environmen­tal activist, he is a youth advocate for Waterkeepe­r Alliance, Physician’s Committee, Oceanic Preservati­on Society and Vulcan Prods., and was also recently designated as a North American Goodwill Ambassador for UN Environmen­t, the youngest ambassador in the UN system. “I believe that if today’s youth work together raising our collective voice, we can effect positive environmen­tal change.”
