Mekai Curtis Biography – Mekai Curtis Wiki

Mekai Curtis (born Mekai Matthew Curtis) is an American actor, voice actor, and musician. He is known for Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day (2014), Kirby Buckets (2014), and Milo Murphy’s Law (2016). He portrays Kanan Stark on the Starz original crime drama Power Book III: Raising Kanan. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Curtis revealed that he was a big Power fan when he auditioned for the series.

He said: “I was a fan. My parents actually were the biggest fans and I kind of was sleeping on it for the first two seasons, but then I came around and I’ve been hooked ever since. So when I got the call to be a part of the universe myself, I lost it for a second.”

The actor did not know he was playing young Kanan Stark until his final audition. He said: “I literally had no knowledge that I was playing Kanan or it was Raising Kanan until my chemistry read, which was my last audition. Up until this point, we were using code names. I knew it was Power, so that was the thing I was excited about. I didn’t care, I just wanted to be on Power. So when they told me, “You’re going to play Kanan,” I was like, “Oh! Okay, all right.””

In addition to having a small role on Girl Meets World, Mekai starred on Disney XD’s Kirby Buckets alongside Cobra Kai actor Jacob Bertrand from 2014 to 2017.
