Darren Sirell Cain is an American actor whose credits in top-rated television and independent features spans broadcast & cable TV, digital and streaming platforms. Cain stars as Senior Special Agent Jason Cole in the feature action-thriller Rift (2021), as Devin in the OWN original movie, First Christmas (2020), and in the recurring role of Peter Promnickle in Tyler Perry's BET+ series, Bruh (2020).

Born in Silver Spring, Maryland, a suburb of Washington, D.C., and raised in North Atlanta, Georgia, Cain developed the keen ability to nurture his talents through involvements in local youth organizations, theatre & performing arts, and high school broadcast journalism. Following his acceptance into Perimeter College at the Georgia State University College of Business, Cain became involved in a range of university-sponsored theatre and performing arts programs. Proving to be more fulfilling and beneficial to his long-term career aspirations, Cain made the heartfelt decision to forgo the remainder of his degree program, in pursuit of promising opportunities in entertainment. Inspired by the commercial success of Will Smith, while mentored by Jesse Malinowski, CEO and founder of Get Scene Studios, Cain received an intensive, all-access crash course into the business of entertainment. While refocusing on discovering his innate artistic potential through scene study, improvisational exercises, and various acting techniques, Cain quickly identified with The Chubbuck Technique, as instructed by Tasha Smith of the Tasha Smith Actors Workshop in Sherman Oaks, California. Cain is signed to BYSB Talent Agency and The Talent Connect, a New York-based artist management firm.
