All American might be a teen drama about high school and now college football players, but that doesn’t mean the actors playing the show’s characters are close in age to the characters they’re designed to be playing!
In the early seasons of the show, the plotlines are set against the backdrop of high school with the majority of All American‘s core cast of characters playing high school students. As the show has gone by, the teen characters have graduated and moved on to college life putting them in that fun stage of young adulthood. Like with many shows centering around teen characters, the actors who make up the All American “teen” cast are actually several years older than the characters they play on-screen.
Curious to know which members of the cast are closest in age to the characters they play and which members of the cast are closer in age to the adults on the show? Find out the real ages of All American cast here!
Daniel Ezra age
Having been born on Dec. 15, 1991, Daniel Ezra will be 32 as of 2023 and happens to be one of the oldest All American “teen” cast members.
Samantha Logan age
Olivia Baker has always seemed wise beyond her years, perhaps it helps that Samantha Logan is several years older than her character. Born Oct. 21, 1996, Logan is 27 years old as of 2023 making her one of the youngest members of the “teen” cast.
Michael Evans Behling age
While we’re uncertain of whether it was intentional or just a happy accident, it just so happens that Michael Evans Behling, who plays quarterback Jordan Baker, is the same age as his on-screen sister! Like Samantha Logan, Michael Evans Behling is 27 years old as of 2023 having been born on March 5, 1996.
