Career

In addition to his YouTube career, Caylen also has appeared as an actor in several films and television series. In an interview with AOL, Caylen stated about his YouTube presence affecting his acting career, saying "I'd say that it's impacted my career so much because people see my personality on YouTube and they want to work with me more.. It's almost like a video resume because I have my own personality on YouTube and since I don't play a character, they can see who I am and what I'm about. I feel like they know me on a personal level and know what I will be like to work with."[5] Caylen played Mikey in the 2016 Tyler Perry comedy Boo! A Madea Halloween,[6] and its 2017 sequel, Boo 2! A Madea Halloween.
