Isaiah Russell-Bailey

Isaiah Russell-Bailey burst on the scene in 2018, and has quickly become a young actor to watch. He stars in the upcoming Netflix family comedy, "Family Reunion" starring Tia Mowry and Loretta Divine. Isaiah plays 'Shaka,' the mischievous, yet well-intentioned young son of the McKellan Family, as they move across the country to a small Georgian town. The series is already making huge waves for assembling an all- black writers room, a feat generally unheard of for a major studio show. Fans may also remember Isaiah from his roles as 'Burton' in the popular Disney series "Raven's Home," as young 'Dee' in the CBS crime drama "S.W.A.T.," or as 'Young Kevon Winters" in "Criminal Minds;" as well as his numerous national print and television campaigns. Isaiah was born in Fort Worth, TX. As a child, Isaiah would often accompany his mother to set where he first learned about break-dancing, one of his many passions. Outside of acting, Isaiah enjoys modeling, art, playing basketball, dancing and parkour.
