Few child actors have the capacity to hold their own with adult stars, but following in the footsteps of such greats as Shirley Temple, Drew Barrymore, Tatum O’Neal and Quvenzhane Wallis, Dax Rey captivates and tugs heartstrings. At first glance, the 8-year-old child actor pulls his audience into his atmosphere, and they soak up his amazing qualities.
His magnetic charm on and off the red carpet and for Right On! Digital is undeniable, and clearly his future has been defined. Starring in the Apple Original film, “Swan Song,” in theaters and on Apple TV+ on December 17, 2021, Dax has plenty of opportunities to shine along with heavyweight actors Mahershala Ali and Naomie Harris who play his parents in the film.
