For more than a decade, Walton Goggins has been one of the most magnetic and intense actors on television. He garnered acclaim for his complex and edgy portrayal of 'Detective Shane Vendrell' on FX's gritty, award-winning drama series “The Shield,” and was nominated for a Television Critics Association (TCA) Award in the category of "Individual Achievement in Drama." He received an Emmy® nomination and four Critics Choice Award nominations for his mesmerizing portrayal of ‘Boyd Crowder’ on FX's series “Justified” and his critical turn as the complex transgender prostitute ‘Venus Van Dam’ on the FX drama series “Sons of Anarchy” earned him two Critics Choice Award nominations and helped shed a fresh light on the transgender community. Goggins most recently starred in the HBO series “Vice Principals,” for which he was nominated for a 2017 Critics Choice Award.

Goggins has had pivotal roles in dozens of films including Quentin Tarantino’s “The Hateful Eight” and “Django Unchained” as well as Steven Spielberg’s “Lincoln”. Most recently, Goggins starred opposite Alicia Vikander in Warner Bros./MGM’s “Tomb Raider” reboot and is slated to appear in Marvel’s “Ant-Man And The Wasp” due out in July 2018.
