[edit] Early life
Johnson was raised in Reno, Nevada, U.S. before moving to Denver, Colorado at 5 with his newly divorced mother along with his two brothers where he graduated from high school in 1995. Afterwards, the family relocated to Sioux City, Iowa where Bryce attended acting classes at the local community college before deciding to embark on his acting career.
[edit] Career
He headed for Hollywood at 19 after his mother encouraged him not to join the navy. While working odd-jobs to pay the bills he searched around looking for auditions and enrolled at Pasadena's American Academy of Dramatic Arts. He was receiving minor work until his big break came in 1999 when he was cast as Josh Ford in The WB's Popular.
After the show ended in 2001, he continued on the platform of more teen-orientated projects with minor guest roles on Dawson's Creek, Gilmore Girls and other teenage shows.
By the time he approached his mid 20s, he said he wanted to branch into more adult and challenging roles trying to stay clear of the teen genre.[1] 2004 saw him playing a gay cheerleader in Bring It On Again and starring in two films screened at the Sundance Film Festival, Home of Phobia and the controversial Harry + Max. In 2005 he returned to television in a short-lived television series, Still Life, and made appearances on What I Like About You, Nip/Tuck, and House M.D while doing voice-over work for video games.
In 2006 he starred in another controversial film, Sleeping Dogs Lie, with Melinda Page Hamilton which also screened at the Sundance Film Festival.
