    About

    Booboo Stewart is an American actor, musician, and visual artist. He is best known for playing Seth Clearwater across the Twilight saga and Jay in Disney's Descendants franchise, and for the role of Warpath in X-Men: Days of Future Past. Those parts placed him inside three of the largest young-adult properties of the 2010s, and he has worked steadily in television and film since.

    His screen work runs from a 2010 breakthrough in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse through the Descendants trilogy and a 2020 turn as Willie in Netflix's Julie and the Phantoms. Away from acting he is a trained martial artist, a guitarist sponsored by Gibson, and a painter who exhibits in galleries. In 2026 he is set to appear in the road-trip comedy Pipe Cleaner Boy and to mount a solo exhibition, If Given the Space to Be, in the autumn.

    Early Life & Background

    Nils Allen Stewart Jr. was born on January 21, 1994, in Beverly Hills, California, the son of Nils Allen Stewart Sr., a stuntman and actor, and Renee Stewart, a former model. He grew up in a household where screen work and physical performance were ordinary family business, and he was training in martial arts by the age of three. Hawaiian Kempo and Shotokan were among the disciplines he studied, and the training was not casual: he went on to win two world championships in martial arts and was inducted into the Junior Black Belt Hall of Fame.

    Acting came at around ten, with early television appearances on ER and Steve Harvey's Big Time Challenge. He also took stunt work, including the 2007 film Beowulf, which gave him a working knowledge of production beyond the child-actor circuit. Those years built the specific skill set, physical discipline plus set experience, that made him a natural fit for a werewolf in a franchise built on movement and stunts. The casting that changed his trajectory arrived in 2010, when he was chosen as Seth Clearwater for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.

    Career Growth

    The Eclipse casting in 2010 was the commercial turning point, and Stewart reprised Seth Clearwater in Breaking Dawn – Part 1 (2011) and Part 2 (2012). The same year as his Twilight debut he sang two Disney theme songs, extending a musical thread that has run alongside the acting. He appeared in Space Warriors (2013) with Danny Glover and then played Warpath in X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014), a brief but widely seen part in one of the decade's biggest superhero films.

    Disney cast him as Jay in Descendants in 2015, and the role became his longest-running. He returned for Descendants 2 in 2017 and Descendants 3 in 2019. In 2020 he played Willie in Netflix's Julie and the Phantoms and appeared as Young Max in a stage production of How the Grinch Stole Christmas. A recurring role as Luca in Freeform's Good Trouble followed. In September 2026 he was announced for the road-trip comedy Pipe Cleaner Boy alongside Abigail Breslin and Yasmin Kassim, set up by Paravox, and he continues to show visual art, with a solo exhibition scheduled for October and November 2026.

    Public Image & Style

    Stewart is presented, and presents himself, as a multi-hyphenate rather than a single-track actor: martial artist, guitarist, painter, performer. His social media splits the difference, with an art-focused account that posts work and exhibition news alongside a more conventional actor's presence. That separation is deliberate and gives him a public identity less tied to any one franchise than most of his Descendants contemporaries. Media coverage tends to frame him as the quiet, craft-oriented member of those casts.

    Fame & Fandom (iFAMOUS Rankings)

    iFANN has not yet collected fame data for Booboo Stewart, so no ranking is published for him as of the October 2026 data month. He is not on the September 2026 iFAMOUS Rankings flagship list either. His visibility instead runs through the fandoms of the properties he has appeared in, chiefly Twilight and Descendants.

    Those audiences have no formal name of their own for him. Fans of the Descendants films organize around the franchise rather than around individual cast members, and Stewart's following is largely an extension of that. The most visible recurring fan moment is the cast's yearly marking of Cameron Boyce's birthday, which draws coordinated posts and tributes across platforms and which Stewart has taken part in. His art account has attracted a smaller, separate audience of people who follow the painting rather than the films. No documented fan campaigns, charity drives or birthday billboards specific to Stewart surfaced in the available research, and the honest characterization is an audience inherited from ensemble franchises rather than a standalone fandom built around him.

    Interesting Facts and Legends

    The professional name is a childhood nickname; he was born Nils Allen Stewart Jr. and has used Booboo since before he was acting professionally. He is sponsored by Gibson guitars, and his art practice has its own Instagram account, @booboostewart.art, separate from his acting profile. The martial arts record is genuine and specific: two world championships and a place in the Junior Black Belt Hall of Fame, earned before his screen career took off.

    Among Descendants fans, the cast's annual tributes to Cameron Boyce, who died in 2019, have become a recurring moment people watch for. In May 2026, on what would have been Boyce's 27th birthday, Stewart joined Dove Cameron, Sofia Carson and others in marking the date, and the coverage treated it as a cast ritual rather than a one-off.

    Family & Personal Life

    Stewart is the son of Nils Allen Stewart Sr., a stuntman and actor, and Renee Stewart, a former model. His father's background is Blackfoot, Russian and Scottish; his mother's is Chinese, Japanese and Korean, which is why searches for whether he is Korean return a qualified yes. He has three sisters, Fivel, Sage and Maegan, several of whom have also worked as performers. He has not publicly confirmed a spouse or children, and no family details beyond his parents and sisters are documented in the available sources.

    Notable Connections

    Stewart's career is closely tied to ensemble casts. He worked with Danny Glover on Space Warriors, with the Twilight cast across three films, and with the Descendants group including Dove Cameron, Sofia Carson, Cameron Boyce, Dara Renee and Joshua Colley. In 2026 he was cast opposite Abigail Breslin and Yasmin Kassim in Pipe Cleaner Boy.

    Relationships & Dating History

    As of 2026:Single

    No confirmed public romantic relationship is documented for Booboo Stewart in the sources reviewed. Google's People Also Ask results show that people search for whether he is in a relationship and whether he has a wife, which indicates curiosity but not confirmation. No credible outlet in the research confirms a partner, engagement or marriage, and no children are reported. As of 2026, the documented status is single, with the caveat that this reflects an absence of public information rather than a statement from him. Any tabloid pairing should be treated as unconfirmed unless multiple credible outlets report it.

    Salary, Net Worth In 2026

    $3 Million

    iFANN Editorial Team estimate

    No credible net-worth figure for Booboo Stewart appears in the sources reviewed for this page, and celebrity wealth trackers did not surface a consistent number. The iFANN Editorial Team's own analysis of his earnings, ventures and assets points to roughly $3 million as of 2026, a deliberately conservative estimate given the gaps in the record.

    The income picture is plausible even without a headline number. Film and television work across three franchises supplies the base: the Twilight films, the Descendants trilogy and a recurring role on Good Trouble represent steady union-scale and above-scale employment over more than a decade. Music adds a smaller stream, including the two Disney theme songs recorded in 2010. Visual art contributes through sales and exhibitions, and the Gibson guitar sponsorship is a modest but real endorsement relationship. Residuals from the Descendants films, which remain in regular rotation on Disney's platforms, are the most durable component.

    Readers should treat any single large figure circulating online with caution; none of it is verified. The $3 million estimate is iFANN's, not a figure copied from a wealth site, and it reflects a working actor with franchise credits rather than a lead-name salary.
