A few years ago, the actress Naya Rivera left us too soon, losing her life in an accident at a lake in Southern California. Her passing had a profound impact on the colleagues she had crossed paths with over the years in shows like ‘Glee’. Her absence is something no one will be able to fill, and everyone in the industry is aware of that, but it does not mean she did not leave a lasting legacy behind.
Her son is set to follow in his mother’s footsteps from a very young age, and he already points high. Josey Dorsey is already getting ready for the shooting of his first feature film, in which he will work alongside his father, Ryan Dorsey. At just ten years old, he will debut in ‘The Burning Valley’, a drama about the life of a father who faces a new world of constant changes when the factory where he worked dismisses him.
Family of actors
Josey’s affinity for acting seems not to have sprung solely from his mother, but also from his father, who works as a supporting actor with appearances in multiple series. His career has extended to shows like ‘Yellowstone’ and ‘Stumptown’, where he has not yet managed to land a solid recurring role that lasts several seasons, unlike his ex-wife.
Ryan was married to Naya Rivera from 2015 to 2016, a marriage that ended in divorce after a brief union. The product of their union was the young Josey, who lived with his mother until her passing and today lives under the custody of his father. From the influence of both and the many years of watching his parents perform, he must have drawn the drive to stand out so early in cinema, and moreover with an important role in his first feature film.
A New Future in Motion
It is currently hard to know what lies ahead for the Dorsey family. The past six years probably haven’t been easy after their mother’s passing, but Ryan’s Instagram is filled with photos that show the love they have for each other. Working together on a feature film could be a great opportunity to strengthen their bond.
