LOS ANGELES - TelAve -- iPOP alum Ethan Cole has been cast in Peacock's upcoming original series "The Burbs."

Cole began his professional career after being discovered at iPOP!, the biannual Los Angeles-based talent showcase. A South African native, he competed in 2018, signed with his first Los Angeles manager, and returned in 2019 as a special guest presenter.

He recently appeared in Peacock's "The Paper", a spin-off of The Office. Earlier in his career, Cole made his television debut on Disney Channel's "Bunk'd" and has since built a résumé that includes more than 20 film and Broadway musical productions.

In "The Burbs," a dark comedy-mystery series, Cole joins a cast led by Keke Palmer and Jack Whitehall. The series follows a young couple who move into a suburban neighborhood where the arrival of neighbors in a long-abandoned Victorian home disrupts their lives.
