DJ Qualls is an actor best known for his roles in the films Road Trip, The New Guy, and Hustle & Flow. He has also made appearances on the TV series Supernatural, Lost, Scrubs, and The Big Bang Theory, and he was cast in a regular role as Citizen Z on the Syfy series Z Nation. He overcame a diagnosis of Hodgkin\'s lymphoma, a type of cancer, at age fourteen. In January 2020, Qualls came out as gay on his Twitter account, stating he was \"tired of worrying about what it would do to my career,\" after announcing it at a Jim Jefferies show in San Diego. Prior to this, he had referenced his sexuality on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson in the early 2010s. He got engaged to his Supernatural costar Ty Olsson in May 2024.
