Biography

Levon Panek attended Bentley University in Waltham, MA, where he majored in managerial economics and minored in quantitative perspectives. He took screenwriting as an elective, and coincidentally was taught by legendary acting coach, Gerry Speca, who two decades prior had taught both Ben and Casey Affleck, as well as Matt Damon, at Cambridge Rindge & Latin. Halfway through the semester Speca approached Panek about acting, alluded to his potential, and told him that he should attend open call auditions. Panek went to an open call for "The Town" and was subsequently chosen by casting to portray a bouncer in "The Social Network." After taking a hiatus from acting and working as a strength & conditioning coach, Panek returned to cinema in 2018 and booked two more speaking roles: as the characters Donald in "Love, Weddings, & Other Disasters," and then as State Trooper Dennis in the Showtime series "Dexter: New Blood," before his acting coach told him to pursue stunts as way of expediting his career path as an action actor. In 2022 he did all of the fight scenes as the Big Daddy character in season 11 of "American Horror Story," and had on-screen fights in movies with Liam Neeson, Stephen Lang, and Lucas Till. His most notable TV performance is as the character James 'Goliath' Kenneally in "Law & Order: Organized Crime," season 3, episodes 13 and 14.
