He hosted an episode of Saturday Night Live in 2026, for which he received a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series.

Early life and education

Storrie was born on February 22, 2000, in Aurora, Colorado.[1][2] Both of his parents worked in the mortgage industry.[3] At a young age, his family moved to Odessa, Texas, where he was raised and first developed an interest in acting.[3] He attended a performing arts school,[4] and also trained in gymnastics as a competitive tumbler.[3]

As a teenager, Storrie moved with his family to Southern California.[3] He attended Westlake High School[5] and spent his junior year studying abroad in France.[6][7] He later began pursuing acting professionally while working as a restaurant server in Los Angeles.[8] He trained in improv at The Groundlings.[3]

Career

Storrie began his acting career in 2018, appearing in short films and minor roles.[9][10] He made his feature film debut in 2023 as Liam Hauser in the coming-of-age drama Riley.[11] In 2024, he appeared in the DC Comics film Joker: Folie à Deux, portraying a young inmate at Arkham Asylum.[12][13] In addition to his screen work, Storrie studied clowning, which he credited with improving his ability to handle challenging acting situations.[13]

Starting in November 2025, Storrie starred as Ilya Rozanov in the Canadian sports romance series Heated Rivalry, based on the Game Changers novel series by Rachel Reid.[14][15] For the role, he studied Russian and developed a Russian accent for his English-language dialogue.[16] His performance received critical praise and brought him wider recognition.[17][18] That same year, Storrie voiced the character Dane in the romance fantasy audio series Ember & Ice, produced for the audio platform Quinn, alongside Hudson Williams.[19][20]

On February 28, 2026, Storrie hosted Saturday Night Live, for which he later received a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series.[21][22] Also in February, Storrie joined the ensemble cast of the A24 comedy film Peaked, directed by Molly Gordon.[23] In April, he was announced to be starring opposite Melissa McCarthy in the thriller film Turpentine, directed by Craig Zobel.[24] In May 2026, Storrie had a cameo appearance in For All Mankind.[25] The same month, he was cast in the A24 period film Please, directed by Halina Reijn.[26]

Beginning in June 2026, Storrie had a four episode arc in the nineteenth season of the crime drama series Criminal Minds.[27][28] His role was expanded from a planned one-episode appearance after his performance impressed showrunner Erica Messer and the production team.[29]

In December 2025, he wrapped production on his feature directorial debut Transaction Planet.[30]
