Demetrius Holt has been cosplaying since 2017 and has done a number of characters from Kratos to Sub-Zero to He-Man.
He's been to the most recent SDCC as Press and have interviewed actors and composers on behalf of JVS YouTube channel. He's a brand ambassador for Black Heroes Matter and Figure This in 3D but most importantly, he's a father of a 2 year old boy named Kaua'i.
Demetrius has been cast in small acting roles. There's a short film he's worked on based in Baltimore and been cast within the "Lost Cos" tv show that is a scripted narrative centered around cosplay. He's also been featured in 3 cosplay magazines in 2019....two of which he's made the cover for....the February issue of Cosplazine and the November issue of Cosplay Alliance Magazine. Men's Health ran an article on him and his impact within cosplay as a Black Man in April of 2021. He's currently creating a series of PSAs aimed at educating Black children via his He-Man cosplay in animated form on streaming services. He's made deals with two services that are accessible via Roku TV and Amazon Fire TV devices. He also hosted a Harvest Festival with KonsiderDis Radio for the children in Ward 7 in Washington DC this past Halloween.
Demetrius' cosplay mission beyond having an outlet for his creativity is to push for the proliferation of minorities within mainstream media. He's been making some pretty sizable strides in that arena seeing as how his He-Man cosplay went viral enough for the writers of the DC Comics mini-series “He-Man and the Masters of the Multiverse” used his image within the final issue that debuted in April 2020. He-Sol is the brand new character that is based on him and Sun-Man per the creator Tim Seeley.

He has voiced multiple puppets, and played a range of SFX-heavy characters and creatures in everything from manufacturing commercials to cult classic horror and sci-fi. A passionate supporter of innovation, Les recently worked with award-winning American inventor Garrett Brown (creator of the Steadicam® and SKYCAM®), to test the safety and limits of the ZEEN® Elevating Walking Chair (a game-changing solution for wheelchair and walker users). He is also the commercial voice of Project 440, a non-profit industry leader in preparing young musicians to use their musical gifts to transform lives and communities. What’s next for Les?
