Dylan changed his sports broadcasting major at Syracuse University, to start off his acting career.

Career

When Dylan was asked to come in for an audition for ‘Teen Wolf’, he had no acting experience whatsoever. As a result, he had to go through multiple auditions before finally getting the role of Stiles.

He made his debut in the film industry with the comedy ‘High Road’ in 2011, and in 2012, he played a part in a rom-com, ‘The First Time’.

He had to undergo facial surgery due to facial fractures, a concussion, and brain trauma.

The movie shooting had to be paused due to his injuries for a whole year, and the ‘Maze Runner: The Death Cure’ movie finally premiered in 2018.

In 2020, a lot of rumors surfaced as a result of Dylan and Sarah Ramos posting a flirty scene on Instagram. They were quickly proven wrong because Sarah got married to Matt Spicer later that year.

Earlier this year, Dylan O’Brien was seen on a date in L.A. with the ‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ actress, Chloe Bennet. Neither of them addressed the dating rumors, so we can’t know for sure if any romantic involvement actually occurred.

In September 2022, Dylan was seen kissing Sabrina Carpenter in New York City. Even though they haven’t addressed any rumors, their fan base was quick to speculate the relationship was, in fact, evolving.
