Early life and career

Christopher Berry was born in San Antonio, Texas and grew up in San Angelo, Texas. He studied acting under professional acting instructor John Dennis at LSU. He moved to New Orleans in 2009. Of his experience, Berry stated "New Orleans basically made me a full-time working actor...by just being frugal, I've managed to make a living at it, and not a bad living." He also credits it to getting connected to other professionals in the business such as Matthew McConaughey and Quentin Tarantino.[1] Berry gained further recognition for his role on The Walking Dead as Negan's Scout and for uttering the famous line "Your property now belongs to Negan." Behind the scenes, Berry had come up with a name for his character (Bud) and a convincing backstory which many fans have taken as canon.[2] He appeared in the film Spider-Man: Homecoming as one of the film's antagonists.[3]
