Top 10 Best Dylan O’Brien Movies and TV Shows

As Stiles Stilinski, best friend of lead character Scott McCall, Dylan O'Brien instantly became the heart of the series. What started as the comic sidekick grew into a complex character with some of the most emotional storylines, and his turn as the evil Nogitsune in season 3B first showed his dramatic range.

O'Brien became the star of this popular dystopian series based on James Dashner's books. As Thomas, who wakes up in a mysterious maze without memories, he brought a perfect mix of intelligence, leadership and emotion. He even survived a serious accident on the set of The Death Cure and returned to finish the film.

In this original and surprisingly funny post-apocalyptic film, O'Brien plays Joel Dawson, who leaves his underground bunker after seven years to find his high school sweetheart in a world full of giant monsters. His scenes with his loyal dog Boy are among the most heartwarming.

In this brutal action thriller, O'Brien plays Mitch Rapp, a young man who joins the CIA after his fiancée is killed by terrorists. He trained intensively to make the role convincing as a traumatized, ruthless agent.

In this underrated crime film, O'Brien plays Richie Boyle, a gangster in 1950s Chicago caught up in a dangerous plot in a tailor's shop. His charisma and menacing undertone make him a perfect young gangster in this noir-style film.

In this hard-hitting disaster film about the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill, O'Brien plays Caleb Holloway, one of the workers fighting to survive when the rig explodes. Not the lead, but he brings real emotion and humanity to the story.

O'Brien plays Colin, a self-absorbed influencer with a hugely toxic vibe. A completely different role for him, and he clearly has fun playing a shallow, arrogant social media star with bleached hair.

In this mysterious thriller, O'Brien plays Fred, a young man who starts having flashbacks to high school and searches for a missing classmate. A trippy, time-bending puzzle in which he conveys confusion and paranoia perfectly.

O'Brien appears in this sci-fi film about people who remember their past lives, playing Heinrich Treadway in the explosive opening chase. His screen time is limited, but he makes a strong impression.

In this Transformers prequel, O'Brien voiced Bumblebee himself, the beloved yellow Autobot, giving him emotion and personality in a film with surprising heart and humor.

O'Brien is part of the ensemble cast of this tense drama about the chaotic ninety minutes before the very first broadcast of Saturday Night Live in 1975, playing comedian Dan Aykroyd.
