Collin Pierré Blanchard is an emerging creative force-an actor, director, and writer whose work blends heart, grit, and undeniable screen presence.
Audiences have seen him in multiple episodes of All American and in the 2023 remake of White Men Can’t Jump. Collin recently made his directorial debut with KID, a short film he wrote, directed, and starred in-showcasing his instinct for storytelling and character-driven drama.
Before filmmaking, Collin built a striking career as a fashion model. His work has appeared in Vogue Italia’s PhotoVogue, and he’s been featured on the front page of Nike Basketball’s website. That foundation in modeling sharpened his visual awareness, on-camera confidence, and ability to deliver authentic emotion. His commercial credits include Jordan, Nike, Hibbett, City Gear, and collaborations with artists such as Kevin Gates, Lebra Jolie, and Katsuya Omakase.
Born in Würzburg, Germany and raised in Huntsville, Alabama within a Christian military family, Collin grew up a natural athlete. A multi-sport competitor from age four, he earned three Alabama high-school state championships-one in football and two in basketball. His talent on the court led to a basketball scholarship at Flagler University, where an unexpected acting class shifted his path and set his passion in motion.
Pursuing that calling, Collin went on to earn an associate’s degree in Communication & Mass Media Studies from Citrus College and a Bachelor of Arts in Theater Arts (Acting concentration) from California State University, San Bernardino.
When he’s not creating, Collin can be found on the basketball court competing in charity and semi-pro tournaments, spending time outdoors, or hanging with his dog. He remains closely connected to his family, including his sister Ceciley and his parents in Huntsville, Alabama.
