Nathan Mitchell (born December 6, 1988) is a Canadian actor. He is best known for his role as Earving / Black Noir in the Amazon Prime Video series The Boys, based on the comic book series of the same name.

Early life[edit]

Mitchell was born in Mississauga, Ontario. He is of Trinidadian and Jamaican descent.[1]

Career[edit]

Mitchell debuted in 2007 with a recurring role on the series Aliens in America. He appeared on Arrow, The Tomorrow People, Timeless, iZombie[2] and Supernatural.[3] Mitchell also appeared in the 2018 film Scorched Earth and the Netflix original series Ginny & Georgia.[3]

In 2019, Mitchell starred in The Boys as Black Noir.[4] His severe tree nut allergy was creatively incorporated into Black Noir as a rather unique type of kryptonite for the character. In one memorable scene, Queen Maeve subdues Black Noir with an Almond Joy bar.[5][6] Mitchell will also portray the second Black Noir after the first one's death in season three.[7]
