D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai

Recently featured on GQ Hype, D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai is a 20-year-old Canadian actor best known for his role as Bear Smallhill in the FX/Hulu comedy-drama Reservation Dogs. Born in Toronto, Woon-A-Tai has Oji-Cree, Chinese-Guyanese, and German heritage. He began his career on Canadian television, appearing on Family Channel series Holly Hobbie, and later Murdoch Mysteries, Creeped Out, and Tribal. His feature film debut came in Tracey Deer’s Beans, winner of the 2021 Rogers Best Canadian Film Award. It was in late 2020 that Woon-A-Tai was announced as joining the cast of Reservation Dogs, which follows the lives of four Indigenous teenagers in rural Oklahoma. Filmmakers Sterlin Harjo and Taika Waititi are behind the project (picked up for season two, airing now), with Woon-A-Tai rising as its breakout star.
