Noah Beck Photograph by Tommy Garcia [This story contains spoilers for Tubi's Sidelined 2: Intercepted.] Noah Beck has conquered social media, so he's ready for a new challenge. The 24-year-old collegiate athlete-turned-content creator-turned-actor has already amassed a massive fanbase, with more than 40 million followers across TikTok and Instagram. After dropping out of college to pursue a social media career in 2020, Beck went on to capture the hearts of millions with his viral lip-syncing and shirtless dancing videos, in addition to his collabs with other members of the Sway House, the former L.A.-based content frat that once dominated TikTok.

He made his film debut in Tubi's Sidelined: The QB and Me last year and just reprised his role as Drayton in the newly released sequel, Sidelined 2: Intercepted, opposite Siena Agudong. But he knows there's so much more to learn and is ready for anything thrown his way. "At this point in my career where, unlike with social media, I've truly loved how humbling this industry is. And if this industry will continue to have me, I will happily be there," he tells The Hollywood Reporter. "I want to try different things and I want to do just about every genre. I'll never rule something out before doing it. That's just shooting yourself in the foot." Below, Beck opens up about Sidelined 2, what it was like working with James Van Der Beek again and teases the possibility of more movies in the franchise. He also shares how his view of social media has changed and the biggest challenge he's been able to overcome. With fans loving the first Sidelined movie, how excited were you to be able to return to the role of Drayton for the sequel? This movie is my baby. I've been attached to it since the very beginning. I've kind of been a part of the adaptation process of taking it from Tam Marley's book to what it is now. And so people resonated with it and people responded, and that's all you can ask from going away for several months and creating something and just crossing your fingers, being like, we had the best time and we hope that we were able to at least capture a little bit of that on camera because the movie doing well or not, honestly, it's at a point where it doesn't even matter. I had so much fun filming these movies and it's just a little bonus if they do well. And the first one did better than any of us thought it was going to do, so that's obviously a blessing. Sports were also such a large part of your life growing up, so what was it like to mix your love of sports and acting for these films? Let's just say Drayton and this story were not too far from my experience, so it was very easy to pull from things that I needed to pull from in some scenes. And those days filming the football shot, it was just play. And it was purely that camaraderie of being with a team and the extras of the football team coming in. It was hard to rally us. We were just on the field throwing the ball around, we were just having fun, and they were like, "Yo, we got to come film this." And I was like, "One more throw." And so it was really fun and it was truly my two worlds colliding, where you take sports and my newfound love, which is acting in movies and film and all the good things and just creating, to be honest. Noah Beck and Siena Agudong in 'Sidelined 2: Intercepted.' Tubi Since you all were already comfortable as scene partners, having done Sidelined: The QB and Me, were you looking forward to reuniting with Siena for the sequel? She's truly one of my best friends. I have so much love for that girl, and more than anything, I was just excited to spend some more time with her. It's funny because when we film these movies, like promoting it, we were just in Rome together and it doesn't feel like work at all. Anytime I'm around her, even when we're away filming a movie, it's just one long hangout and one long sleepover, and it's summer camp with your best friends. That alone is a selling point for me to continue acting in this franchise that it now is. And I think when you enjoy the work so much, I hope it shows through the screen because she's just so easy to have chemistry with, and I am very lucky. You also worked with the iconic James Van Der Beek again on the sequel, and I know he's been battling cancer, so how special was it to reunite with him? I could sit and talk about how amazing James was to me for an hour if you have it. With James, he has such a presence to him, and you can't not be present in a scene with him. I learned so much, and I've just felt like I had this front row seat to such an acting masterclass. In our scenes, he's Drayton's father, so when
