Cameron Palatas was born in San Pedro, California, on February 23, 1994.[1] He is the younger brother of fellow actors Nick Palatas and Philip Palatas.[2] His first acting job was with his family, including his brother Nick, as extras in a Walmart commercial.[3]
Palatas had a recurring role in the 2013 mockumentary series Zach Stone Is Gonna Be Famous.[3] He has since had minor roles in several Disney shows such as iCarly, A.N.T. Farm, and I Didn't Do It. In 2015, he starred in the Christian drama film Pass the Light, in which he played a high school senior who runs for U.S. Congress.[4] That same year, he starred in the Lifetime film Double Daddy.[5] In 2016, he starred in the third season of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. as a younger version of Gideon Malick,[6] reprising the role in the seventh season of the show in 2020.[7] He starred in the 2017 comedy film F the Prom by Benny Fine.[8][9][10]
Palatas dated actress Ariel Winter around 2012, which attracted some controversy as he was 18 years old and she was 14 years old.[1] Winter's mother filed statutory rape charges against Palatas in 2012,[1] but the charges were soon dropped when Winter's sister Shanelle Workman became Winter's legal guardian and alleged that their mother had been physically and emotionally abusive,[11] culminating in Winter receiving emancipation in 2015.[12][13]
