De’Shawn Washington (Skinny) makes his motion picture debut in STEP UP. Turning 16 during the last week of principal photography, Washington is already a triple threat, adding film roles to his leads in stage plays and work as a stand-up comic. The Chicago native grew up around talent. His father, Shawn, is a successful actor, his mother, Renee is a model, and both he and his younger brother Isaiah (who plays Tyler’s young foster brother in STEP UP) are actors who frequently work together. De’Shawn started acting at age 11 when he landed the lead roles of Bill and Lane in the Chicago stage play “Go Ask Alice.” At the same time he began doing local and international commercials, his first being an ad for the Chicago Bulls co-starring with Bulls star Kirk Hinrich. At age 14 he started writing his own stand-up act and started performing, debuting his acts at the world famous Improv in Los Angeles. De’Shawn was an active volunteer for Project Share in Chicago where he served food to the economically disadvantaged in his community. He is currently on his school’s honor roll and holds academic awards. He resides in Los Angeles, California.  Other Cast Channing Tatum   Jenna Dewan   Mario   Drew Sidora   Heavy D   Rachel Griffiths
