David Clayton Henrie (/ˈhɛnri/ HEN-ree; born July 11, 1989) is an American actor, writer, and director.[1] He is noted for playing Ted Mosby's future son Luke on How I Met Your Mother and Justin Russo in Wizards of Waverly Place, as well as starring in the films Little Boy and Walt Before Mickey.

Early life[edit]

Henrie was born in Mission Viejo, California, to Linda Henrie (née Finocchiaro), a talent manager, and James Wilson Henrie, a producer formerly in real estate.[2] [3][4] He is the older brother of actor Lorenzo James Henrie. His maternal grandparents are Italian.[5][6] Henrie was raised as a Roman Catholic,[7][8] and, in a video chat, stated that he is "a Christian and always will be".[9] He grew up in Phoenix, Arizona.[10][11]

Career[edit]

At age 13, Henrie landed a regular role as Petey Pitt on the Fox sitcom The Pitts. Henrie next landed a leading role in the Hallmark movie, Monster Makers, with Linda Blair and George Kennedy, and was asked to come back for another Hallmark movie, to play a role in Dead Hollywood Moms Society.[12] He also starred as Skylar Blaford in the Fox's sitcom Method & Red.[13]

Henrie guest starred in many shows such as Providence, Without a Trace, The Mullets, Judging Amy, The D.A., Jack & Bobby, NCIS, House, and Cold Case.[14] Before his role on Wizards of Waverly Place, he had a recurring role on That's So Raven as Cory's friend Larry.[15] Henrie also had a recurring role on How I Met Your Mother, where he played Ted's future son.[16]

At the age of 18, Henrie got the role of Justin Russo in the Disney Channel Original Series, Wizards of Waverly Place.[17] The show premiered on October 12, 2007. He was in the movie Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie with the cast of the series.[18] Henrie played Justin Vincenzo Pepé Russo through the whole series. About a year after the finale, a film, The Wizards Return: Alex vs. Alex premiered on March 15, 2013, without Henrie, but his character was mentioned, and a photo of him is shown. Henrie is credited with writing two episodes of Wizards of Waverly Place, "Alex's Logo" and the series special "Meet the Werewolves".[19][20]

He had a role in the Disney Channel Original Movie Dadnapped co-starring Emily Osment.[21] Henrie made a guest appearance as himself in two episodes of Jonas. According to Reuters, Henrie was officially named the Grand Marshal for the 2009 Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race.[22]

In 2010, Henrie guest-starred in the web series Easy to Assemble.[23] In 2012, Henrie voiced the character of Shawn in the movie The Secret World of Arrietty.[24]

Henrie appeared in Grown Ups 2 (2013), opposite Taylor Lautner and Adam Sandler.[25] In 2014, Henrie played the lead in 1000 to 1: The Cory Weissman Story, the true story of a young basketball player who suffered a catastrophic stroke as a freshman at Gettysburg College. [26] Later that year, Henrie guest starred in the ABC show Mind Games.[27]

As of 2014, Henrie has directed two short films, Boo! and Catch.[28][29]

In 2015, Henrie played the role of Lane, a valet who falls for Paul Blart's daughter, in the sequel Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2. He also co-starred as London Busbee, older brother of the title character, in the drama Little Boy, and had a role in the indie biographical drama film Walt Before Mickey in which he plays Rudy Ising, who worked for Walt Disney.[30][31][32] Henrie had cameo appearances in indie drama Cardboard Boxer and Warrior Road.[33]

In 2018, Henrie directed a coming-of-age film This Is the Year, in which he also starred and co-wrote.[34] In August 2020, Henrie and his Wizards of Waverly Place co-star Selena Gomez, who served as executive producer on the film, announced the virtual movie premiere of This Is the Year.[35] In 2023, Henrie played the role of Ted in the Tubi original series Underdeveloped.[36]

Henrie appears on the American Catholic meditation and prayer app, Hallow.

Personal life[edit]

On April 6, 2012, Good Friday, Henrie accompanied Eduardo Verástegui in a speech addressing life issues at the Church of the Most Blessed Sacrament in the city of Piura, Peru.[37] In October 2016, Henrie became engaged to former Miss Delaware 2011, Maria Cahill.[38] They were married on April 21, 2017.[39] They have three children, a girl born in March 2019,[40] a boy born in December 2020,[41] and a girl born in July 2022.[42] He is a practicing Roman Catholic.

Legal issues[edit]

On September 10, 2018, Henrie was arrested and charged at Los Angeles International Airport under allegations of carrying a loaded gun in the airport. He later released a statement on Twitter apologizing for the incident, stating that the act was unintentional and the gun was legally purchased.[43][44] On September 26, 2018, it was reported Henrie was charged on three counts for "carrying a loaded firearm, carrying a concealed firearm, and possessing a weapon in a sterile area of the airport".[45] He pled no contest to one charge and received two years probation.[46]
