Costa D'Angelo Started Acting at Age 12
Costa D'Angelo shared behind-the-scenes photos from the set of the 'Tell Me Lies.'
D'Angelo, after launching an acting career when he was 12, had roles in Holding the Man, Wog Boys Forever, The Deb and Crazy Fun Park.
When asked whether he would like to play a Marvel or any superhero character, he told the CGA, "Maybe a little. You know, that's so funny, because every kid grows up wanting to be a superhero. And I grew up acting. I remember I used to watch those superhero movies thinking, 'That's pretty cool, I want to be one, one day.'"
However, he noted that his focus is on working with directors rather than the role.
"I think I'd love to work with — everyone wants to work with [Quentin] Tarantino. I would love to work with someone like [Martin] Scorsese or [Christopher] Nolan. I love Nolan's films, and there's just like as far as you can think. Those directors, I think they're all amazing," he continued.
