Darius Homayoun is one of the hot new stars of Netflix’s hit series Sex/Life and he’s helping heat up season two! In season two of the show, Darius plays Billie’s new love interest Majid and he plays a major role throughout the arc of the season. Darius is a relative newcomer to the industry with Sex/Life being his 10th professional credit. He has previously been seen in shows like HBO’s Succession and Apple TV+’s Tehran.

Born in Dubai and of Iranian heritage, Darius was trained in New York City where he attended college at NYU.

“I first studied with Terry Knickerbocker when he was teaching at NYU, and I was a college student there. After college, I secured an agent and began auditioning. After a series of unsuccessful auditions, my agent said that I needed more training, which I did not want to hear. But she recommended that I continue with Terry, who was then teaching with William Esper. I enrolled in a two-year training course with Terry, and my career was enhanced immediately. When Terry subsequently opened the Terry Knickerbocker Studio, I enrolled in several master classes there, and I now turn to Terry for coaching on every part that I play,” he said.
