Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ son Charlie joins ‘Sex Lives of College Girls’ cast
Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ youngest son, Charlie, has been cast in Season 2 of “Sex Lives of College Girls.”
Deadline reported Monday that the 25-year-old will have an arc as an Essex College student named Andrew on the HBO Max show, which has yet to set a premiere date.
Additionally, the actor will be in a “Sweethearts” movie with Kieran Shipka and Nico Hiraga, as well the “Big Shot” series.
Charlie shared his recent successes via Instagram Stories that same day, writing, “The stuff I’ve been working on lately!”
He joked, “Don’t worry I’m still wholly dedicated to improving my spikeball game, Lebron James and seeking out the best fried egg in America.”
Louis-Dreyfus shared the news to her own Story. “That’s my boy!” the “Veep” alum, 61, gushed.
While Charlie’s character’s significance in “Sex Lives of College Girls” remains unclear, his casting comes five months after Gavin Leatherwood shocked fans by announcing his exit from the series.
While the “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” alum, 28, was “happy to do the first season” of the show, he will not “be back” next time around, he told Us Weekly in March.
Leatherwood played Reneé Rapp’s character Leighton’s brother and Pauline Chalamet’s character Kimberly’s love interest and before his surprising departure — leaving a possible opening for Louis-Dreyfus’ son to fill.
The actress and her husband, Brad Hall, are also the parents of son Henry, 30.
While the pair’s elder child has pursued a career in the music industry, his younger brother has been following in their parents’ acting footsteps since 2019.
Over the years, Charlie has had appearances in “Moxie,” “Bel-Air,” “Love, Victor,” “Sorry, Charlie” and “Single Drunk Female.”
Before kicking off his acting career, Charlie made headlines for his basketball skills, as he was a walk-on for Northwestern University’s team as a freshman.
“We think he is outstanding in every regard,” Louis-Dreyfus told the Chicago Tribune in January 2017. “We’re his biggest fans.”
The proud parents did “not miss a game — either physically or on TV,” adding, “It’s just a matter of our production schedule. If we can be there, we are.”
