Here’s a bit of a primer on Knox. The Atlanta-born actor is 27 years old, and he spent most of his life pursuing a career in music before a few television roles changed his mind and set him on the path to starring in a Netflix show. That path has thus far been mostly defined by small roles in big superhero stories.
Knox has been involved in comic book adaptations from the very beginning of his career. He showed up in the low-budget, fan-made YouTube series Uncanny X-Men in just his second-ever appearance, back in 2012. From there, the opportunities have gotten a little bit bigger, even if the roles have been rather small. He played LaShawn on three episodes of the Arrowverse series Black Lightning, and is credited as “Stoner Dude” in 2018’s Venom. While that might be a pretty humble CV, clearly the producers of Sweet Magnolias saw quite a bit of potential in the young actor.
