Getting Ready: Graham Campbell Skates into Paris Fashion Week

Fresh off his breakout role in The Shards and headed for the ice in Fake Skating, Graham Campbell takes VMan behind the scenes at Balenciaga in Paris

With his signature grin and trademark curls, Graham Campbell is the name you just can’t stop hearing. Best known for his role in The Shards and soon to reprise the leading role in Lynn Painter’s Fake Skating, the actor is carving out a path that has taken him from Broadway to the screen—and now, the ice.

While seemingly at home in front of the camera, Campbell originally came up via stage left. His professional theater debut landed him on Broadway alongside Sarah Paulson, Corey Stoll, and Elle Fanning in the Tony Award-winning production of Appropriate.

This year, Campbell made his mark on screen among the likes of Kaia Gerber and Homer Gere in Hulu’s The Shards, taking on the role of Thom Wright, the quintessential high-school jock and golden boy. But if The Shards introduced audiences to Campbell as the effortlessly polished heartthrob, his next role promises to put a new spin on the archetype. 

Campbell might be Fake Skating next summer, but for now, he’s in Paris, where he took VMAN along for the ride at Balenciaga or, should we say, the rink?
