Ryan Potter Facts

Born in Portland, Oregon, Ryan was raised in his father’s native Japan until the age of 7 after which he returned to the United States and was raised by his single mother. He later took his mother’s surname, Potter, as his last name.

Although his first language was Japanese, he lost touch with it over time due to limited usage in the United States. When he was 8 years old, he had started getting trained in the Chinese martial art of White Tiger Kung Fu. A versatile talent, he could also play the drums and would dabble in sports such as baseball (catcher, second base, and center-field) and skateboarding during his school days.

His acting career kicked off in 2010, when he noticed a leaflet during a kung fu class which mentioned that the children’s TV channel Nickelodeon was casting teenagers for its martial-arts based show titled Supah Ninjas. He decided to audition and was selected for the lead role of Mike Fukanaga.

In 2011, he had founded a charitable organization called Toy Box of Hope through which he had launched a toy collection drive in Los Angeles to share them with children in homeless shelters and transitional living facilities.
