EXCLUSIVE: CAA has signed actor Tyriq Withers for representation. Most recently, Withers wrapped as the lead opposite Marlon Wayons in Him (formerly Goat), Universal Pictures’ psychological horror film from Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions.
The project centers on a promising young athlete who is invited to train with a team’s retiring star. Wayans plays the legendary quarterback, with former college athlete Withers as his protégé.
Justin Tipping (Kicks) directed the pic from a Black List script by Zack Akers and Skip Bronkie. Others in the cast include Julia Fox, Tim Heidecker, comedian Jim Jefferies, and musical artists Guapdad 4000 and Tierra Whack.
The film is slated for a wide theatrical release on September 19, 2025. Prior to Him, Withers was perhaps best known for his role on FX’s Emmy- and Golden Globe-winning comedy series Atlanta, created by and starring Donald Glover.
