Biography

Eddie Davenport is an actor and stunt double from Tarpon Springs, FL. He got his start on stage in the fall of 2001 at St. Petersburg College as the lead role in Christopher Durang's 'Actors Nightmare.' The minute Eddie took the stage and got his first laugh, he knew performing was what he wanted to do with his life. After several performances on the SPC stage, Eddie transferred to the University of Central Florida as a theatre major in 2002. It was there that Eddie started to gain more experience as a performer at Universal Studios Orlando. At the same time, he also did night shows at Pirates Dinner Adventure on International Drive. This is where Eddie learned fight choreography, sword fighting, and high falls. He carried that love of action with him when he moved out to Los Angeles in 2006 to pursue a career in film and television. Since then, Eddie has appeared in numerous blockbuster films and is credited with over 100 episodes of television, both acting and stunt doubling/performing. Eddie's most recent awards include a 2022 Satellite Award for Best Stunt Performance in The Suicide Squad and for his Series Regular role as the antagonist Internal Affairs Investigator, 'Robert Zakia' in the drama series Bronx SIU, which won Best Ensemble Cast for a Drama Series at the 2020 Indie Series Awards.
