Lou Ferrigno Jr. Takes Hollywood!

By Loan Cat

Watch out Hollywood! There’s more than one Ferrigno to watch out for. That’s right, we’re talking about Lou Ferrigno Jr. 

Standing next to the Hulk, it’s easy to get shadowed, but this Ferrigno made his own way and stands bright in his own right.

Lou Ferrigno Jr. is an American actor, comedian, and “Pop-Surreal” fine artist. Louis made his way into entertainment as a fitness model, which eventually lead him into roles for commercials, tv and film.

Although growing up with one of the strongest and iconic men in history, Louis found his own way into the fitness industry  which he uses to give back to the community. He works with adolescents at Paradigm Malibu, a treatment center for addiction and mental health. For years, Louis had nurtured his passion for inspiring misguided youth to better their lives through exercise. 

Aside from making his community a better place, Louis is currently in a recurring role as Rocker in CBS S.W.A.T. He’s had other incredible roles in N.C.I.S., Bones, The Young and The Restless, How I Met Your Mother, to name a few. With such vast and variable roles, it will be no surprise seeing him in more roles in the future.

I recently asked Lou, if there was something you wanted your fans/supporters to know about you, what would it be? His answer? “I eat shrimp tails.” Ah, Lou, ever the comedian!
