Jonathan Lengel is an actor, singer, and performer. He will star in the Netflix adaptation of 13: The Musical, premiering August 12th globally. He was discovered as part of a worldwide casting call for the role of Archie. 13 is based on the hugely popular musical of the same name, which debuted on Broadway in 2008, and featured the first and only all-teenager cast, which included Ariana Grande and Liz Gillies. The film is an exciting coming-of-age journey that explores all the ups and downs of preteen life: being the new kid in town, making friends at a new school, crushes and first kisses — not to mention the challenges of getting along with your parents. In addition to 13, Jonathan just joined the cast of the Will Farrell produced musical comedy Theater Camp where he will appear alongside Ben Platt, Amy Sedaris, and Patti Harrison.
