Belmont Cameli, the star of the new Prime Video series 'Off Campus', is experiencing a chaotic yet exhilarating promotion week. The 28-year-old actor, who plays NHL-bound college hockey captain Garrett Graham, is grateful for the attention, especially from his friends and family who have been sending him photos of their watch parties. The series, based on the book series by Elle Kennedy, follows a college hockey team and the women in their lives, tackling both typical college woes and heavier topics. Cameli's journey to this leading man moment was not without its challenges. Initially studying finance, he found himself in a career lull after a stint of inactivity. However, a personal tragedy led him to shift gears and pursue modeling and acting, a decision he never regretted. Cameli's persistence and determination paid off when he landed the role of Garrett Graham, despite not initially being his preferred genre. The actor's dedication to the role is evident in his training, including learning to skate, and his commitment to the show's success is further demonstrated by his participation in a hockey bootcamp with his onscreen teammates. The show's success, particularly in comparison to 'Heated Rivalry', is a win for the entire industry, according to Cameli. He is particularly proud of the precedent set by his character and his co-star, music student Hannah Wells, played by Ella Bright. As the show progresses, Cameli looks forward to the new dynamics and the opportunity to showcase his layered performance. He is also eager to explore other projects, including a feature film, and is grateful for the chance to prove himself as a leading man and a reliable collaborator.
