We had the good fortune of connecting with Nicholas David King and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Nicholas David, how do you think about risk?
What is life without a little risk?
Simply put, not living life to the fullest.

I risked everything when I first moved to Los Angeles.
Born and raised from Louisville, Kentucky, I left home with nothing but a car full of belongings and a dream. A dream that one day I would lead Movies and TV shows. Knowing that only a handful of people had ever accomplished what I set out to chase.

The best is yet to come…
Using an unwavering amount of swagger to pierce through the armor of the Entertainment Industry.

Since my move, I’ve been fortunate enough to appear in 15 feature films, including leading roles in three of them. Most recently, I brought holiday cheer while leading the Christmas Feature “A Happy Holly Day.” Releasing this December!
In addition, I’ve made appearances in three different television series.
Doing my best by continuing to build a versatile yet dynamic on screen presence.

Decades will pass regardless if you want them to or not…
So wouldn’t you rather look back and be able to say :
“I took every risk I could.”

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
To date, I’ve been in 15 feature films, and I’ve had the chance to lead 3 of them!
All leading Features are set to release this year:
“A Happy Holly Day,” “Stray House,” and “Soul To Keep.”

I’ve also worked on two TV shows coming out this year as well
“Revenger Revisited” and “Hot Court.”
Also, along the way, I’ve been lucky enough to be apart of projects like Hulu’s “Eenie Meanie” with Samara Weaving.

I feel genuinely blessed for every opportunity I’ve had.
Each project has meant something different to me, whether it was the role itself or the people I met along the way. I wouldn’t change any of it for the world!

People always ask, “What’s your favorite role you’ve played?”

And honestly, I’d have to say,
The next one!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
To Karen and David King,
My Mom and Dad.
Thank you for being my biggest cheerleaders and my strongest foundation.

In a life full of uncertainty, one thing I never question is that you’ll always have my back.
Your love, support, and unwavering belief in me mean more than I could ever put into words!
I am truly blessed to have you both by my side, and I hope every day to make you as proud as your cheers are loud.

Distance may have taken me far, but know you all are apart of every one of my greatest moments.
