Biography

Known for his goofy humor and elastically expressive face, Joey Heyworth is a British American stage and screen actor. Beginning his career onstage, his work has been seen by audiences in New York, London, Chicago and Raleigh, working with acclaimed theaters such as Stoneham Theatre and Burning Coal Theatre playing title roles in Romeo and Juliet, and Simon Stephens' one-man-show Sea Wall.

Since expanding to the screen, Joey has had the great fortune of acting alongside immense talents such as Stella Maeve in Hulu's Original Old Maid (2020) and Theo Germaine in the indie film Holy Trinity (2019). When productions can't seem to get enough Joey, he has relished in the challenge of exploring different characters within the same series as he did for INSP's TV Series Wild West Chronicles (2020) and the Jay Shetty (2020) Mini-series.

Although his goofy comedic style is in full force with his recurring character in TV Series Sexpectations (2023), Rhian Williams's short Fetish (2022), and the outlandish comedy The Other Side of Infinity (2024), Joey's dramatic abilities were showcased in Critics' Choice nominated Betrayed (2016) and the short Audition, which awarded Joey an honorary mention for Best Actor from the Independent Shorts Awards. Joey's face might also be recognizable from Buzzfeed sketches, his commercial work for brands giants such as KMart, State Farm and Wayfair, or even in print for companies like Manscaped, Retrospec, Busch Beer and Rubios Grill.

Throughout the years Joey has continued to hone his craft and expand his skill set through revered training programs at The Groundlings, The Actor's Gymnasium, Spin Circus Academy and Cirque Du Vol. He recently discovered a new love for all things green and is proudly settling into his new series regular role of plant daddy.
