Angus O’Brien (Class of 2018) can be seen in the breakout role of Hicks in Netflix’s new series BOOTS! In Boots—a 1990s-era dramedy inspired by Greg Cope White’s memoir The Pink Marine—we follow Cameron Cope’s journey through Marine boot camp as he wrestles with identity, camaraderie, and secrecy. Angus brings magnetic energy to Thaddeus “Beau” Sterling Hicks, the unpredictable “wild card” in the platoon whose actions keep everyone on edge—and keep viewers hooked. So proud to see one of our own on a show that balances heart, humor, and bold representation. Congratulations, Angus — onward and upward!
