Tyree Adams is a dynamic, multifaceted artist from Philadelphia whose talent spans film, television, music, and now animation. He first rose to prominence with his breakout role as Ol' Dirty Bastard in Hulu’s critically acclaimed series Wu-Tang: An American Saga, earning widespread praise for his electrifying and authentic performance as the iconic rapper.
Since then, Atoms has continued to build an impressive body of work, with standout roles in Netflix’s You and Orange Is the New Black, Lena Waithe’s indie comedy The 40-Year-Old Version, and Hulu’s miniseries Mike, where he portrayed Mike Tyson’s childhood friend Barkim. Known for seamlessly shifting between drama and comedy, Atoms brings a magnetic presence and emotional depth to every role.
Beyond acting, he’s now stepping behind the camera as the creator and producer of his own original animated series, ATOM—a bold, imaginative project that fuses sci-fi, street culture, and superhero energy into a genre-defying universe. With ATOM, Atoms is not only pushing the boundaries of storytelling, but also championing authentic representation and carving out new space for diverse voices in animation.
