About
RJ Mitte broke through as Walter White Jr. on Breaking Bad, turning his cerebral palsy diagnosis into advocacy work that reshaped how disability appears on screen.

His Leo drive for bold representation has since extended to Netflix's The Guardians of Justice and indie films.

Biography
RJ Mitte's breakthrough came as Walter White Jr. on the AMC crime drama Breaking Bad (2008–2013), a role that pivoted his career toward disability-conscious storytelling. Born August 21, 1992, in Jackson, Mississippi, Mitte was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at age three. He relocated to Hollywood in 2006, working deliberately with a talent manager to secure roles where his disability could educate rather than exploit.
Beyond Breaking Bad, Mitte starred in the ABC family drama Switched at Birth (2014) and the Netflix animated series The Guardians of Justice (2022). His film credits span Who's Driving Doug, the thriller drama Time Share (2018), the independent comedy Standing Up for Sunny (2019), The Oak Room (2020), and Triumph (2021), which he also executive produced. In 2013, he received the SAG-AFTRA Harold Russell Award, cementing his role as a Screen Actors Guild spokesman for actors with disabilities. Mitte serves as a celebrity ambassador for United Cerebral Palsy, grounding his industry presence in sustained advocacy. As a Leo born in late August, Mitte's signature trait—uncompromising visibility—mirrors his public commitment to disability representation.
