Tyler Lepley Career
A producer at a boxing gym discovered Lepley and urged him to audition. He landed a main role in the independent horror film Slumber Party Slaughter as a result of that meeting. Lepley reluctantly followed his agent’s recommendation to take acting seriously and enrolled in classes, and he made his acting debut in an episode of The CW’s 90210.
After a lengthy casting procedure, he was cast as Benny in Tyler Perry’s The Haves and the Have Nots in 2013. Perry arrived to the audition dressed as his renowned Madea character because he was filming a movie at the time, which startled Lepley. Lepley also starred alongside Paula Patton in the 2013 comedy Baggage Claim. In early 2016, Lepley was cast in the lead role of Jaxon in the made-for-television film Ringside, directed by Russ Parr and produced by Swirl Films. The film was first shown on TV One in September of 2016. Tequan Richmond, who played Chris in Everybody Hates Chris, and R&B singer Sevyn Streeter were among his co-stars. P-Valley, a Starz drama, cast Lepley as a series regular in 2019. He was cast in the untitled Tracy Oliver film in 2020.
As a youth, Lepley participated in a variety of sports, including track, football, basketball, karate, and boxing, but as he grew older, he focused more on football. Tyler Dennis was his high school football nickname. He had an injury in June 2003 that nearly terminated his football career, and he later underwent surgery. By the summer of 2004, Lepley had returned to the field and had been named MVP at a sports event.
On a football scholarship, he attended Kutztown University. Lepley was a member of the university’s football team until the fall of 2007, when he and another player were punished for assaulting and fracturing the jaw of an innocent man. Lepley’s football career was gone, even though he was restored to the institution. Lepley earned a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from Kutztown University in 2010.
