Nathan Xia人物介绍

Nathan Xia is a Chinese American actor, filmmaker, and alternative artist from San Diego, California. At age 19, he gained notoriety for his viral film GOODNIGHT AMERICA (starring Xolo Maridueña and Jacob Bertrand), boasting 1.8M+ views across the film and trailer. At age 20, he made his next film, OH, MIGHTY OCEAN! (starring Jack Griffo, Peyton List, and Jacob Bertrand) which was quickly acquired and distributed by Omeleto, ShortsTV, and Gonella Productions. Concurrently, Xia wrote, directed, and starred in his debut micro-budget feature film, CHASING SUNDANCE, acquired by Freestyle Digital Media and distributed worldwide on platforms like Apple TV, Amazon Prime, and Tubi.

As Xia matured, his films and creative sensibilities did as well. He found inspiration in the misunderstood and began using his art to tackle themes of mental health, coming-of-age, and the Asian American experience through an emotionally vibrant and comedic personal lens. His next film, ADAM’S SONG, screened at a multitude of festivals and won awards at the Nashville Film Festival and the Ouray International Film Festival before being acquired for online distribution by Wong Fu Productions, NextShark, and FilmShortage, and broadcast television distribution by PBS. AYO, CHECK UP!, a basketball mental-health dramedy, followed. The film premiered at Lebron James’ Uninterrupted Film Festival and was distributed online by Omeleto, NextShark, and NBA legend Jeremy Lin. His latest film, FLAVOR OF THE MONTH, will kick off its festival run at the Asian American International Film Festival in New York and the HollyShorts Film Festival in Los Angeles.

As an actor, Xia has performed in undisclosed television shows for Netflix and Apple TV, and in indie films for Matty Matheson, Jim Cummings, and Danny Madden.
