Marlona and Steve Buchanan welcomed Tanner into the world on December 8, 1998. He was born and raised in Lima, Ohio, and showed early skill in dancing and sports. Tanner excelled at soccer and dancing thanks to Marlona’s excellent coordination, The Blade was informed. Agents and managers soon began to notice Tanner’s promising abilities. He remarked to Men’s Health:
“I started when I was five, and at around nine, I went to a competition in New York. Agents and managers were present. I had huge spectacles, buck teeth, and a bowl cut at the time. I was the little Jerry Maguire. The agents and managers were complimentary when they claimed I had a “very character appearance.”
Tanner was advised by the agents to pursue acting, but doing so required him to relocate from rural Lima to Los Angeles. After consulting with Marlona, Tanner’s parents decided that she should travel with him to Los Angeles to expose him to acting chances. The fact that Marlona didn’t enjoy her job in Ohio certainly helped.
Because we didn’t sure how long we would stay, Tanner told The Blade,
“We didn’t expect we would be there for that long and tried not to acquire as much furniture as possible.”
Fortunately, a few weeks after arriving in Los Angeles, Tanner secured parts in prominent television ads. The pair’s initial six-month stay was extended to a year.
Despite being accustomed to Los Angeles, Buchanan still looks forward to his trips back to Ohio. He appreciates how people in Lima don’t treat him like a celebrity and how peaceful life is in his hometown.
He told The Blade, “They do care, but I’m no one special. “It helps to be around people who treat you normally and help you stay grounded. Everyone in this room is real.
Tanner was initially concerned that the Cobra Kai storyline would drop his character
Tanner didn’t anticipate that Cobra Kai would become the most popular Netflix series when he was offered the role of Robby in the series. After airing on YouTube Premium for two seasons, the streaming service picked up the program.
Unfortunately for Tanner, Netflix picked up the show at a moment when his character was in limbo. Ronny sent Miguel (played by Xolo Mariduena) from a school balcony, but it was unclear what happened to him after that. Ronny had fled into hiding. According to Tanner, who spoke to Men’s Health, he repeatedly bugged the filmmakers about his character’s future:
“When I read that, I became concerned. I spoke with stunt coordinators as well as writers and creators on several occasions. Hey, I want to make sure that people don’t think Robby is a nasty man. I assume this was an accident. I repeatedly bothered them.
Tanner had to undergo a physical change to play his part in Cobra Kai. He will inevitably put on muscle from the rigorous training, but he must maintain his leanness to conform to the demands of his character. Tanner admitted to Glamour Magazine that as long as he is healthy, he doesn’t care about bulking up. He clarified:
However, I feel as though I’ve changed my perspective through the years to be like, “Look, if you’re working out consistently and you’re staying healthy, that’s all you need to do.” That is what motivates me, not trying to appear like Chris Hemsworth or Channing Tatum as Thor, because I can assure you that I am not six feet four and 250 pounds. I’m a lot shorter than that.
Tanner was dating Lizze Broadway, but reports suggest that the relationship has fizzled out
Lizze Broadway, a performer, and Tanner date back to 2017. In November 2017, Tanner uploaded a picture to Instagram with the comment,
“What you do when the person you love comes to visit. @lizzebroadway,” showing a beautiful scene with candles and rose petals. The couple started a YouTube channel in 2019 and posted a video of the two of them at Comic-Con.
Although the pair haven’t made a split announcement, their lack of engagement on social media has encouraged rumors that things are over. Only two Instagram posts on Tanner’s page refer to the connection, while Broadway’s page makes no mention of it. We are unable to confirm whether Tanner and Lizze are still dating at this time.
Tanner and Addison Rae practiced kissing during their free time on
He’s All That, a Netflix version of the 1999 film She’s All That, stars Tanner Buchanan and Addison Rae. Tanner, the most unpopular student at school, is to be transformed by Addison into the prom king in the movie.
Before being selected to play the lead role in the movie, Rae had no prior acting experience. Some people think Rae’s fame on social media helped her land the part.
Buchanan agrees with Addison’s assertion that she had to put in a lot of effort to make her acting debut. Tanner admitted to Variety that Addison was far better than him at recalling lines. He stated:
Rae and Buchanan had been practicing their kisses in their spare time. In our time, we did practice the kiss, Rae admitted to Entertainment Tonight.
“You have to! We decided to just go ahead and do it because doing it in front of everyone the first time is awkward.
