Amari O'Neil came into the world, "Dramatically", as the one minute older identical twin of actor Amir O'Neil. They both weighed in at a hefty 1lb. and 9ozs. At the age of 3, he and his twin expressed the desire to, "be on T.V." When they turned 7, their parents decided to help them pursue their dream. They submitted to 5 agencies and only received a response from one...The Savage Agency. That was really surprising because Savage was the agency thought to be the least likely to be interested being that they usually don't accept mail in submissions unless it's from a referral. Two weeks later, they went in for an interview with the commercial agent and ended up being offered representation across the board. About two weeks after that meeting, they went on their very first audition for the lead role of Michael in the movie White Water, directed by Rusty Cundieff and produced by Dwayne Cochran-Johnson. They landed the role with no training and only coaching from their mother! They were privileged to work alongside Sharon Leal, Larenze Tate, Barry Shabaka Henley, Lori Beth Sikes, Storm Reid, Zane Hall, and many other veterans in the industry. About 3 weeks after returning home from filming White Water, he and his twin scored a national commercial. Hide
