Biography

Nick Wolfhard knew that he wanted to be a cartoon character at the age of four. Despite his parent's well-intentioned efforts to gently teach him that the likelihood of this particular dream coming true was low, he remained steadfast. He quickly realized where the answer was; in his voice. And so Nick grew up, ever perfecting his gift of bringing characters to life, be them cartoon or otherwise. Today, grown-up Nick still has a knack for turning his dreams into reality. He recently received his first Leo Award nomination (best voice performance animation program or series) for his lead role in the Netflix animated TV series, "The Last Kids on Earth." The Emmy ®-nominated show, now in its second season, premiered globally on Netflix in 2019. "The Last Kids on Earth" follows 13-year-old 'Jack Sullivan' (Wolfhard) and a band of suburban middle schoolers who battle zombies in the aftermath of a monster apocalypse. The series also features the voices of Mark Hamill, Bruce Campbell, Rosario Dawson, Keith David, and Catherine O'Hara.

Wolfhard voiced characters in the critically lauded, "Smiling Friends" pilot created for Adult Swim by Michael Cusack and Zach Hadel. He appeared on the NBC primetime drama "The InBetween" and has voiced multiple characters in the animated series "My Little Pony." In addition, Wolfhard is the voice of numerous characters in two fan-favorite anime projects, "Beyblade Burst" and "World Trigger." Wolfhard voiced characters in two full-length films, Under Wraps and Howard Lovecraft and the Kingdom of Madness.

A popular streamer on Twitch, Wolfhard has created a large and loyal community that follows his channel on the leading streaming platform.

Nick was born in Vancouver, Canada, and has one younger brother, Finn, who is also in the business.
