Darin is an up and coming, talented, actor who has not been fully discovered. He has been acting in the film industry for over ten years. His career really began to take off after his first principle role in the Disney film  "Going To The Mat,” as Yardley, a football jock who bullies Khleo Thomas (Holes) for wearing a varsity letterman’s jacket. The following year Darin booked his next principle role in the Disney film “Halloweentown High,” as the Troublemaker, a disruptive student who gets an eyeful after sassing Debbie Reynolds (Singin' in the Rain); he also bullies Lucas Grabeel (High School Musical fame) only to get tossed by a large Troll. Darin showed his ability to carry a film when he took a starring role as King Alfred in “The Saxon Chronicles,” a festival indie film about the life of the great king, a role he filled with ease. He then went on to land the leading role of Jeremy Harris in Discovery Channel’s number one series at the time, “I Shouldn’t Be Alive,” where he reenacted a severe survival story of rescuing his injured brother from death as he struggles to stay alive himself. Darin continued to make cameo appearances in film and television until he starred in “Gold Is Not Enough,” where he played a spoof James Bond, who sings his way through one villain after another to save his damsel in distress. The award winning musical short film has a funny surprise ending and the lyrics were performed and written by Darin Southam, with his stepsister Emily Dunn (Napoleon Dynamite) as his damsel in distress belting her harmonious approval of her hero.

Darin’s latest major role was in the film “One Man’s Treasure,” as Elder Johnson, an uptight Mormon missionary who has a huge change of heart and learns a lot from a light hearted companion. Currently, Darin lives in Newport Beach California where he continues delivering moving performances in film and commercial alike.
