CODY LEE DUGGER

Cody Lee Dugger is a Montana-based actor and seasoned horseman whose path to film runs through the real American West. Standing 6’4″, he brings a grounded physical presence shaped by years of ranch work, colt starting, and managing cattle across rugged country. Before pursuing acting full-time, he worked as a custom home builder and cattleman—experience that gives his performances a rare authenticity and quiet intensity.

Cody portrayed U.S. Marshal Bob Paul on INSP TV in 2024, bringing historical grit and authority to the role. In summer 2025, he appeared as Strett in Flint, the upcoming Angel Studios feature directed by Ryan Whitaker and starring Josh Holloway, further establishing his presence in grounded, character-driven film.

Cody also worked on The Old Way, where he not only doubled for Nicolas Cage but wrangled horses on set and ran bear guard during night shoots in Tom Miner Basin—experience that reflects his deep familiarity with the land, the work, and the lifestyle of the West.

Equally skilled in contemporary and period roles, Cody draws on real ranch life, livestock handling, and Western culture to create believable, lived-in characters. Originally from Tennessee, he can seamlessly carry or drop a Southern accent, adding versatility across Americana, military, Western, and blue-collar roles.

honest performances.
