United Talent Agency has signed Connor Tomlinson, a breakout star of Netflix’s “Love on the Spectrum U.S.,” for representation in all areas.
Tomlinson, who became a fan favorite on Seasons 2 and 3 of the docuseries, was recently on hand at the this year’s Creative Arts Emmys, where the show won two categories: outstanding unstructured reality program and casting. He also served as a presenter during the ceremony alongside his friend and fellow co-star Tanner Smith. The duo’s mothers — Lise Smith and Nicci Smith — launched a podcast in March titled “Talk to Me Sis,” where they discuss their life experiences, including raising children with autism.
With UTA, Tomlinson is expected to expand his presence into scripted and narrative series, brand partnerships, endorsements, voiceover work and live events. He has used his platform to champion visibility and representation for the neurodivergent community, a mission that will continue with his new representation.
In July, it was announced that Connor was cast for a guest role for the second season of NBC’s medical drama “Brilliant Minds” which stars Zachary Quinto.
UTA’s Creators practice, launched in 2006, was the first of its kind to establish a dedicated audio and digital talent division, as well as a gaming and esports arm. The division’s roster includes Dave Portnoy/Barstool, MrBallen/Ballen Studios, Alex Cooper, Emma Chamberlain, Alix and Ashtin Earle, Charli D’Amelio, Madeline Argy, Jake Shane, Kai Cenat, and Colin and Samir.
Tomlinson will continue to be managed by The Shine Side.
