Rob Benedict is an actor best known for his roles in TV and films including "Felicity", "Supernatural", "The Boys" and the movie "Waiting..."

Born and raised in Columbia, Missouri, Benedict received a degree in Performance Studies from Northwestern University. After graduating, his passion for theater lead him to performing in regional theaters across the country, including a critically acclaimed one-man show based on the life of James Dean.

In Los Angeles he began performing in improv and sketch comedy shows and stand-up comedy. After a handful of guest star roles in tv, he was cast as Richard Coad in "Felicity", which ran for 4 years on the WB. Since then, Rob has acted in more than 80 episodes of television and film over his 25 year career.

In 2012 he wrote, produced and starred in the 30 minute short film "The Sidekick", which starred Jordan Peele, Lizzy Caplan, Ike Barinholtz, Ron Livingston and Jason Ritter.

In 2017 he wrote, produced and starred in the 10 episode series Kings of Con with friend and fellow actor Richard Speight Jr.[1].

When not acting, Benedict is the front man of the indie rock band Louden Swain, whose 10th record, "Feelings and Such", was released in 2023.

    • Trivia
      Rob is a stroke survivor - In Oct 2013, Rob has suffered a stroke during a Supernatural Convention in Toronto. He was in danger of losing his life but a quick action by his close friend Richard Speight Jr and convention volunteers saved his life. Throughout the following year, Rob made a miraculous recovery and regained all functions, especially the ability to sing. His triumphs and experiences as a survivor is recorded in lyrics on the album "Sky Alive" (2014) by his band Louden Swain, as well as in the anthology "Family Don't End With Blood: Cast and Fans on How Supernatural Has Changed Lives" (2017) where he recounts his stroke and the following events. Along with his friend actor/director Richard Speight Jr, Rob established a t-shirt campaign called 'Getting By With a Little Help' where a portion of the proceeds were donated to the National Stroke Association (2016).
