What happened to Ryan Kwanten? Home and Away star 'goes missing' after ... trends now
Aussie hunk Ryan Kwanten gained thousands of devoted fans when he portrayed heartthrob sheriff deputy Jason Stackhouse in True Blood.
But after starring in the hugely popular HBO series, the former Home and Away star, 47, has dropped off the radar and almost entirely wiped his social media presence.
He was last spotted in public 2022, when he enjoyed breakfast in Manly with his family and fiancée Ashley Sisino after jetting in from Los Angeles.
The veteran actor had a boom in his career when he moved to LA following his stint on Home and Away, and landed on HBO's hit series True Blood from 2008 to 2014.
However, he is rarely seen on the mainstream big screen nowadays, despite working more than ever in the film industry.

Ryan has made some very interesting moves in his acting career, choosing to 'stand behind first-time filmmakers and independent filmmakers' as often as possible.
In an interview with Cinema Australia in 2022, Ryan said it brings him great joy to help other Australians 'raise their creative baby' and execute their vision.
'There's nothing that appeals to me more than being on set... surrounded by like-minded crazy people,' he said.
'[We're] all working towards this one goal of trying to make art in the middle of all this madness. It's amazing. I love it.'
Since True Blood, Ryan has worked in a slew of movies and television series, with his IMDB showing multiple works being released every year.

Recently, he teamed up with Australian director Ivan Sen on Mystery Road and Expired, with the latter featuring Hugo Weaving and Jillian Nguyen.
Ryan also starred in Australian sci-fi thriller 2067, directed by Seth Larney, alongside fellow Down Under actor Kodi Smit-McPhee.
Dark characters have frequently attracted Ryan's eye as he picked up roles in several lesser known thrillers and horrors such as Glorious, Sacred Lies, and Creepshow.
Ryan still accepts all-star gigs from time-to-time with Section 8 in 2022 seeing him act alongside the likes of Dermot Mulroney, Dolph Lungren, and Mickey Rourke.
He produced and starred in two seasons of Sony original The Oath alongside Sean Bean, which also featured Curtis '50 cent' Jackson as a producer.
