Phillip Lewitski

Phillip Lewitski knew he wanted to be an actor after participating in a theatre production as a kid. Now he can be seen on the small screen in “Utopia Falls”, a Hulu show about a group of teens living in a future colony who find a forbidden archive of historical, cultural, and musical relics and use the power of music to create change. Lewitski comes to life on screen playing the calm-natured Apollo who not only discovers the truth about his colony but discovers things about himself along the way.

Many things drew me to “Utopia Falls”, but a major one was the character I was going out for. Apollo felt very close to me and there was just this indescribable deep-rooted knowing that I had to explore him a certain way. The show’s concept as a whole was also unlike anything I had ever seen before which was very intriguing. They were pretty general when speaking about the show before we signed contracts and got cast, but we did know one thing: they wanted to represent different cultures and dive deep into their pasts and what that looked like. This was especially important as my ancestors and family history is something I hold very dear to me.
