Chase Coleman

Coleman was invited to Dallas to compete at the Mike Beaty Model and Talent Expo. It was there that Chase won several awards including best monologue and overall fitness model. He was then discovered by talent manager Suzanne Schachter and was invited to go to New York City to test the market for the summer. While in New York, Coleman was offered the role of Garrett on the popular daytime soap opera, One Life to Live. Not long after landing that role, he received many offers to remain in New York City for professional acting work, shifting to online courses in order to finish his degree. In 2006, he signed with the company Suzelle Enterprises and Abrams Artists Agency through Paul Reisman. During his time in New York, he studied at the HB Studio with Lorraine Serabien, with Susan Batson at Black Nexxus, and with Jennifer Gelfer at the Haymarket Annex Master Class.

In 2010, Coleman won the Screen Actors Guild Award for "Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series," for his role on Boardwalk Empire. He was then cast as Dr. Dane Sullivan in the web series, In Between Men. It was this role that got Coleman nominated for an Indie Soap Award for "Best Supporting Actor in a Drama," in 2011.

In 2014, Coleman was cast as the werewolf, Oliver, on the hit TV show The Originals, the popular spin-off show of The Vampire Diaries. His role as Oliver spanned a total of twelve episodes between Season 1 and Season 2 of the series.

During his pursuit of expanding his acting career, music follows close behind. In 2014, while guest-starring in the fan convention circuit, Coleman began playing music acoustically for the audience; he covered mainstream music as well as singing original songs he had written.

Later in 2016, Coleman landed a guest-starring role on the NBC series, Aquarius, as Terry Melcher, a character that spanned three episodes.

In January 2017, Coleman, along with friends Chris Weaver and Micah Parker, formed the band, Mercy Mode. Their first single, "Take It All," was released on March 15, 2017 and is available on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, and Google Play.
