Lucas Till is best known as the title character in CBS' MacGyver reboot, but here's where else you may recognize him. After making his movie debut in 2003's The Adventures of Ociee Nash, young Lucas Till quickly scored his first major role as young Johnny Cash in acclaimed biopic Walk The Line. A random assortment of supporting roles and guest appearances would follow, including horror-comedy Dance Of The Dead, an episode of House and a small role in slasher film Laid To Rest alongside Lena Headey.
Following an appearance in 2009's Hannah Montana: The Movie, Lucas Till made a notable appearance in the video for Taylor Swift's hit song "You Belong With Me." Till played "Boy Next Door," the object of Swift's affections in the video. The actor would continue to pay his dues with roles in lukewarm Jackie Chan family comedy The Spy Next Door in 2010 and a part in 2011 blockbuster Battle: Los Angeles.
In 2011 Lucas Till received one of his biggest breakthroughs to date, playing Havoc in prequel X-Men: First Class. Havoc - AKA Alex Summers - is the brother of X-Men hero Cyclops and is one of the titular students of Professor X. Till does a solid job given Havoc's limited screentime, and would return for X-Men: Days Of Future Past and X-Men: Apocalypse. Given the wealth of characters, though, it feels like the sequels didn't know what to do with his character. Till only appears in one scene in Days Of Future Past and Havoc is later killed in Apocalypse merely to provide Cyclops with some character growth.
Lucas Till kept busy outside of his X-Men trilogy, appearing in movies like Paranoia with Harrison Ford and Gary Oldman, Dark Hearts and he scored a lead role in 2014 horror movie Wolves. Directed by David Hayter - best known for voicing Solid Snake in the Metal Gear Solid franchise - Till plays a teenage werewolf who makes an enemy of Jason Momoa's Alpha. In 2016 he appeared alongside Kate Beckinsale in critically panned thriller The Disappointments Room and played the lead in the big-budget family movie Monster Trucks.
Monster Trucks starred Till as a young man who discovers a literal monster living inside a truck, who he befriends and helps protect from an evil oil company. The movie was a huge bomb for Paramount, losing the studio over $100 million. Till has had better luck career-wise on television when in 2016 he took over the title role in the reboot of MacGyver. The show's breezy tone and Till's chemistry with co-star George Eads saw it overcome mixed reviews to be a solid hit for CBS. While Eads would depart the show in season 3, MacGyver is still going strong to this day. Lucas Till is next set to star in biopic movie Son Of The South.
