MICHAEL
JOHNSTON

Michael Johnston is an American actor and voice performer born on 22 February 1996. Raised in North Carolina, he has worked across television, independent films, theatre and video games.

Johnston began exploring voice acting as a teenager. His later microphone work included a role in the music-driven video game The Artful Escape, alongside screen performances.

Television viewers encountered him as Corey Bryant in Teen Wolf. In the independent film Slash (2016), he played Neil, an introverted teenager whose writing becomes a way to connect with another fan.

Johnston plays Bear in Curry Barker’s horror film Obsession, which reached cinemas in 2026 after festival screenings. Bear makes a wish about his friend Nikki, setting a disturbing chain of events in motion.

The role gives Johnston a character whose hesitations and choices matter as much as the film’s supernatural premise. It sits alongside earlier work in which young characters seek connection while navigating uncertainty.
