Ross Marquand, an American actor, was about to give up hope of ever making a living as an actor. But it was only a few months later that he landed his breakout role as Aaron, a gay character in the American horror series The Walking Dead (TWD).

TWD Auditioned Me For A Different Role
Marquand, a fan of The Walking Dead since its premiere on Halloween in 2010, had always wished to work on the show. That’s why he was ecstatic when he got cast in the project as Aaron.

He hadn’t initially auditioned for the role of Aaron. Gareth had invited the actor to audition. He had returned home from the audition after taping a few takes.

Sharon Bialy, the acting agent, called him about fifteen minutes later to see if he was available for another audition right away.

Hungry for work, the Colorado native returned to apply for a role that required him to be creative, lively, and hilarious – he had no idea he was auditioning for Aaron. He received a call a week later informing him that he had booked the part.

Since the sixth season of The Walking Dead in 2015, Marquand has been a regular on the show.

After the Big Break, I booked a lot of high-budget movies and TV shows.

Marquand has had a penchant for acting since he was a child. After college, that was the only profession he wanted to pursue. As a result, he relocated to Los Angeles in pursuit of new chances.

Thankfully, his abilities were recognized, and he was cast in the drama-thriller Down and Dangerous in 2013. The celebrity impersonator was cast in a series of films, including Love Sick, Saturday Night Special, and A Lonely Place.

He even played iconic American actor Paul Newman on the AMC television show, Mad Men.

The TV episodes and movies, however, were insufficient to propel him to celebrity; let alone renown, they were insufficient to cover his bills. After auditioning for The Walking Dead, his life took a turn for the better. His name became well-known, and his financial situation improved.

He also played Red Skull in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, which contributed to his growth. Invincible and Blockbuster: The Story of James Cameron are two TV shows in which he appeared. The red skull actor has a net worth of $1 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

Supports the Representation of LGBTQ+ People

The portrayal of Aaron, a tough gay character in The Walking Dead, was Marquand’s most significant break in his early acting career. And the actor lauds TWD writer Robert Kirkman for diversifying characters and incorporating LGBT characters into mainstream Hollywood.

In October 2017, while speaking with ComicBook about his gay role on the program, he praised Robert’s praises. He insisted that having individuals from many walks of life was a plus for the TWD crew.

Since the first season, the TV show has featured a gay character. Ross backed the idea, expressing his admiration and support for equality regardless of one’s history, skin color, or sexuality.

Is Ross Marquand married or unmarried?

Marquand appears to prefer seclusion when it comes to his personal lie. He hasn’t said anything about his relationship status, whether he’s dating or married.

The only time the voice impressionist has discussed his personal life was in a Twitter post in 2012 when he referenced his girlfriend.

He admitted that the most embarrassing thing he’d ever done was leap into a wishing well to protect his girlfriend’s cherished possession, a family relic.

Since then, neither his companion nor his relationship status has been revealed by the American Dad star.

What is Ross Marquand’s age?

On August 22, 1981, the TWD actor was born in Fort Collins, Colorado. He is a 39-year-old man.

It isn’t much known about his parents or childhood, but what is known is that he was interested in acting since he was a toddler.

Ross began acting when he was nine years old when he took part in one of the church’s plays. Following that, he joined the Boy Scouts of America.

While attending college at the University of Colorado, he began to demonstrate his acting abilities by participating in a variety of theatre productions. Kill A Mockingbird and The Cherry Orchard are two of his most well-known stage productions.
