Bio
Adam King is an actor best known for his work with Viva La Dirt League, where he plays everything from clueless NPCs to cursed wizards, jaded tech bros, and overly intense D&D characters. His comedic timing, expressive physicality, and love of genre storytelling have helped bring VLDL’s worlds to life across viral series like Epic NPC Man, Techtown and PUBG Logic.
Outside of VLDL, Adam has appeared in a wide range of short films, music videos, and commercial campaigns. He trained at the University of Auckland and honed his skills across the indie film scene, with performances that swing from deadpan absurdity to full-blown emotional chaos. He’s a committed, collaborative performer who’s always game to throw on a wig, wield a fake sword, or get very, very into a character who definitely doesn’t deserve that level of intensity.
