D’Angelo, who once auditioned for Angelina Jolie’s film, Unbroken, plays Alex in Hulu’s Tell Me Lies with Grace Van Patten and Jackson White
Costa D’Angelo’s star is rising. The 25-year-old actor is currently starring in the third season of Hulu’s hit drama series Tell Me Lies as Alex, and fans are already swooning over him. The show follows Baird College students Lucy Albright (Grace Van Patten) and Stephen DeMarco (Jackson White), aka TV’s most twisted couple at the moment, and the far-reaching consequences their toxic relationship has on anyone in their orbit.
In season three, Alex is introduced as Lucy’s new love interest, and their chemistry – evident in a particularly steamy love scene that’s going viral – is through the roof. He is getting his master’s in psychology at Baird, but he’s also a narcotics dealer. He has a complex history with Lucy’s friend, Bree (Catherine Missal), with whom he was in foster care.
