What Happened To Theo Rossi After Sons Of Anarchy?

It should come as little surprise that Rossi did not walk away from acting after “Sons of Anarchy” ended. In fact, the actor’s scene-stealing work on the show helped open a few intriguing career doors, and one look at his IMDb page will confirm he’s kept incredibly busy since “Sons of Anarchy” left the airwaves. 

One of the first projects Rossi worked on after “SOA” was the 2015 indie “Bad Hurt.” The film earned Rossi his first credit as producer and found the Staten Island native returning to his hometown to front a harrowing family drama lauded by critics and audiences alike (via Rotten Tomatoes). A year later, Rossi made his Marvel debut as the trigger-happy Harlem bad boy Hernan “Shades” Alvarez in Netflix’s “Luke Cage,” which, of course, found him trading lines with screen heavies like Mike Coulter, Mahershala Ali, and Alfre Woodard. 

Rossi followed that Marvel gig with film roles in “American Skin,” and Netflix’s “Rattlesnake.” In 2021, he joined the cast of Zack Snyder’s zombie-heist flick “Army of the Dead.” If you’ve seen it, you know his role as the vile Burt Cummings is, shall we say, complicated. You also know Rossi is pretty great in the film. Most recently, Rossi turned up opposite Kevin Hart and Wesley Snipes in the overlooked Netflix series “True Story.” And he can be seen burning up the screen with Aubrey Plaza in the indie crime thriller “Emily the Criminal.” If you haven’t caught that one yet, it cannot come more highly recommended (per Rotten Tomatoes).
