Kristos Andrews

Kristos Andrews is a British-American Actor, Producer, Director and 11-time Emmy® winner.

Raised in Surrey, UK and Los Angeles, CA; his ambiguous ethnic appearance is thanks to his British, Spaniard and French bloodline.

Known to be an actor first, Kristos holds the record five Lead Actor Emmy® wins by the age of 30. He holds six additional Emmys for his work as a Producer and Director, and moreover, an Emmy® nomination as a Writer. Kristos is the only individual in history to have won Emmy®s in the three well-coveted professions of Acting, Producing and Directing. Additionally, from his former career as an athlete (extreme sports), Kristos is an X-Games Gold medalist and multiple Guinness® World Record holder.

Andrews has garnered most of his acclaim through his raw and 'soulful' performances in the crime-drama "The Bay" (Peacock) , in which he plays Pete Garrett, the hometown hero, opposite love interest Karrueche Tran; a highly popular super-couple on the series, known for their chemistry-filled scenes, as well his own twin; as British bad-boy, Adam Kenway. His committed, and powerfully contrasted performance garnered him his most recent 2021 Emmy® win for Best Lead Actor in a Limited Drama Series.

Kristos' breakout performance as Adam Kenway on The Bay landed him the lofty 'Big Bad' anti-hero role in the Lionsgate action film, Survive The Game (2022) in which he goes head-to-head in heavy scenes throughout the movie with film legend, Bruce Willis. For his dedicated work in this film, Kristos received the Septimius Award® nomination (Amsterdam, NL) for Best American Actor, alongside film star Thomas Jane.

In the action film arena, Kristos has risen to the occasion of working head-to-head with legends such as Bruce Willis and Jean-Claude Van Damme ("Darkness of Man," 2023). Known to perform his own stunts, Andrews' extreme sports discipline and martial arts experience has been put to great use. Kristos has wrapped as the protagonist in the upcoming action movie "Breakout" (2023) co-starring Tom Sizemore and Louis Mandylor.

Other recent movies include Lifetime Movie Network's 'The Killer in My Backyard' (2021, Lifetime), Showtime's "2nd Chance for Christmas" (2020, Showtime) co-starring Vivica Fox and Tara Reid, the Netflix football drama "The Last Whistle" (2020, Netflix) co-starring Brad Leland, and the lead role in "A Place Called Hollywood" (2019, Apple TV). In addition, Kristos was also Emmy nominated for his comedic role as series regular, Tyler, in the teenage family sitcom This Just In (Pop TV) , which made him the first-ever performer on the Pop TV network to receive Emmy recognition.

In addition to being attached as co-director and special guest star on The Bay's spin-off teen drama 'yA' (2022) Kristos will continue playing the lead on "The Bay" and also stars as a series regular in the upcoming dystopian sci-fi "Fraxtur" (2023), co-starring Brittany Curran and Denise Richards.

An 11x Emmy winning Actor, Director and Producer, Kristos continues to prove he is in a league of his own. He often dedicates his award wins to his teammates, co-stars, and family; including his late mother artist Catherine Andrews, whom he lost in 2017. Kristos has paid homage to his mother in multiple award speeches, acknowledging her for being a fearless artist herself, and for always encouraging him to follow his dreams.

Despite the grief which comes with the loss of a mother, Kristos truly embodied the meaning of turning 'pain into art' by pushing on to execute such profound work as an artist himself; and by making history, in a factual sense, and working toward changing the construct of this industry as we know it.

Kristos is a prodigy in his work today, but is on track to being remembered in the history books as one of the greatest in our business; touching audiences around the world, and molding a great new example for generations to come.
