Who is Scott Evans
Scott followed in his brother’s footsteps and pursued a career in film and television after college.
Speaking with Soap Opera Digest in October 2009, Scott revealed he received his degree in drama from New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts before landing his first major role as Oliver Fish on the soap opera One Life to Live.
Though he acted in many plays when he was younger, Scott also told the publication he doesn’t believe he “ever really knew” he wanted to become an actor.
“I hated homework more than anything. It was this weird thing when school finished at 3 p.m. I’d check out. I couldn’t do homework,” he said. “So I knew in order to get into a good school, there would have to be some sort of audition to get in because my grades weren’t good. But once I got into NYU for it, I was like, ‘You know what? I kinda like this. Maybe I could make a career out of it.’ It’s in the blood. Every single person in my family has done plays at some point.”
In addition to One Life to Live, Scott also has acting credits in Grace and Frankie, Almost Love and With Love.
More recently, he was cast in the highly-anticipated Barbie movie. Scott shared the news on Instagram in April 2022, posting multiple screenshots of a Deadline article that announced the latest additions to the cast.
