Biography

    • Kristos Andrews is a British-American Actor and Executive, who for his age, holds the record-most Emmy® wins, housing eleven golden angels (11). This includes five (5) Lead Actor wins, five (5) Executive Producer wins, one Director win (1) and two Writer nominations (2). Kristos is the only person in history to receive Emmy® wins separately as an Actor, Producer and Director. No other has ever achieved this historical feat.

      Amongst a multitude of global accolades for his work, from London, to Cannes, to China; Andrews garnered 10 lead actor wins in festivals globally for his raw performances which include Cannes World Film Festival® "Best Actor in a Feature Film" and the coveted Huading® award for "Best Global Actor in a Television Series," winning alongside Michelle Yeoh (Best Global Actress for "Everything Everywhere All at Once" A24), while beating out formidable nominees such as Bob Odenkirk (Saul in "Better Call Saul"). Furthermore, Kristos is the only actor to in history to have won 5 out of 6 lead actor Emmy® nominations- an incredible batting average for talent.

      On the academia front, Andrews is Harvard® educated. Having spent the pandemic years wisely, he qualified for enrollment in 2021, studying Entrepreneurship at Harvard Business School® (Boston, Massachusetts). Kristos has used his business knowledge and keen understanding for filmmaking as a whole to further projects he's now involved with; Executive Producing multiple upcoming films which include household names such as Dennis Quaid, Emma Roberts, Ron Perlman, and Mickey Rourke, amongst others.

      Another notable mark in history-- in 2024 Andrews was dually responsible for the first (and only) independent series (The Bay, Prime) to ever break into the highly sought-after "Category 1" Daytime Emmys® which has historically been dominated by network show nominees. He and his series are heavily featured in The Hollywood Museum for their groundbreaking, history-changing achievements. President of a 23-time Emmy® winning production company (LANY), it's evident Andrews has his finger on the pulse of our ever-evolving Hollywood landscape.

      Known to perform his own stunts, Andrews' extreme sports background (for which he's garnered two Guinness® World Records and an X Games Gold medal) has been put to great use. In the action-thriller movie world, Kristos has risen to the occasion of going head-to-head with legends such as Bruce Willis ("Survive The Game") and Jean-Claude Van Damme ("Darkness of Man," 2024) for which a sequel is filming in the UK in 2025 which Kristos will also be starring in. Furthermore, in 2025 he's already attached to star in multiple films which include Kate Beckinsale, Lana del Rey, Dane Cook, Al Pacino and more.

      Andrews has garnered most of his accolades through his raw performances in the crime-drama "The Bay" (Prime), in which he plays the All-American hero, opposite love interest Karrueche Tran; a highly popular super-couple on the series. Kristos' notability for having strong chemistry with his co-stars, alongside being know for his gentle nature, has propelled him greatly.

      Talented as they come, by only his 30s, Kristos Andrews has achieved beyond what most careers could yield in a lifetime of work. This is only the beginning of a very powerful success story, at the forefront of our new era.
