Kurt Yue was born in Beijing, China and moved to the United
States with his parents when he was four years old. He spent
his formative years moving around the country from Iowa to
Arizona to Ohio. Unlike many actors, Kurt never dreamed of
acting when he was growing up. He never participated in drama
club in high school nor did he take any theater classes in college.
In
fact, before the age of 27, his only acting experience was a fourth
grade play (in which he played a horse). Four years
after graduating college with a degree in computer science and
engineering, Kurt was doing business consulting as a
software developer in Cleveland, Ohio. He was the "typical
young professional" working nine-to-five on weekdays and hitting
the bars with friends on weekends. One Saturday night, after a
night of celebrating a high school buddy's return from a tour of
duty in the army, Kurt and his friends were walking back to
their cars when he noticed an interesting storefront. It was the
Houde School of Acting - the premier acting school in
Cleveland, Ohio. Since he was looking for something to do after
work at the time, this really piqued his interest. Kurt
decided to jot down the contact info and, the following week, he
walked into his first acting class ever.
With speaking roles in Fox’s The Gifted, Sony’s Venom andMarvel’s Black Widow, Yue has appeared in all 3 Marvel Universes.
Kurt is also known for his roles in Cobra Kai, The Haunting of Hill House, Dynasty, Young Rock, Preacher, Will Trent, Man in Full, Wolf Pack and Ozark.
