About Alex Newell:

2023 TIME Magazine Breakthrough of the Year Alex Newell made history in 2023 as the first nonbinary-identifying actor to receive a Tony Award for “Best Featured Actor” for their role as Lulu in Broadway’s SHUCKED. Last year, Alex was also awarded recognition in both the Variety New Power of New York List and the 2023 TIME 100 Next list. Alex can soon be seen starring in SIMPLE FAVOR 2 for Lionsgate/Amazon for director Paul Feig. Alex Newell first garnered attention on the screen in FOX’s critically acclaimed series GLEE as transgender student Wade “Unique” Adams. Breaking barriers and challenging gender norms at a time when the conversation around gender identity was not widely accepted, Alex has remained one of the leaders in the quest for equality. SHUCKED was merely their second turn on the Broadway stage, a follow up to their time in the Tony-winning “Once On This Island”, and Alex Drew raves nightly with their standout solo “Independently Owned.” Alex also has an impressive list of TV credits including "Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist," along with the Emmy-nominated Christmas special on Roku, as well as "Our Kind of People,” and Fox’s "Empire," and "Glee." Alex has received several award nominations including Critics Choice, Gold Derby, Screen Actors Guild, and Hollywood Critics Association. While part of the cast of “Once On This Island” Alex earned a Grammy nomination for “Best Musical Theater Album” and won a Tony for "Best Revival of a Musical."
