Known for his curly hair, runway work, and relaxed online presence, Kaestli now balances commercial modeling, short-form dramas, and social media content that gives fans a more personal look into his everyday life.

A French Actor With a Global Background

Kaestli was born in France and later lived in Montreal before eventually splitting his time between Los Angeles and New York.. He grew up in an artistic family and developed an interest in theater at a young age, later performing live theater in New York City before transitioning further into film and screen acting.

Alongside acting, modeling became a major part of his career. Kaestli worked internationally with fashion brands and appeared in magazines including Vogue, Vanity Teen, and L’Officiel.

His training background also reflects a serious focus on acting craft. According to his résumé, he studied scene work with Gilles Plouffe in Montreal, audition technique at Gray Studio in Los Angeles, and trained at the Susan Batson Studio in New York.

Transitioning Into Screen Roles

Before entering the vertical drama world, Kaestli appeared in smaller film and television projects including "Gossip Girl: Next Gen," where he played a male model, as well as the sci-fi thriller "Divinity."

More recently, he has started building momentum through short-form romance and fantasy dramas. His credits now include "Falling for the Internet’s Sweetest Temptation," "Blood and Silver: Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate," "RyDe&DiE," "Beastly Lights," and "Bye Ex, I Got My Jackpot Fiancé."

One of his most recognizable recent roles is Alpha Dane Montague in "Blood and Silver: Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate," where he plays a werewolf alpha caught between revenge, guilt, and lingering feelings for his former mate.

The role helped introduce Kaestli to a wider audience within the vertical drama space, particularly among fans of fantasy romance stories.

Building a Social Media Following

Outside acting and modeling, Kaestli has also built a sizable online following through TikTok and Instagram, where he often leans into humor and lifestyle content.

A large portion of his videos revolve around being French while living in North America, including lighthearted observations about dating culture, language differences, travel experiences, and everyday misunderstandings between French and American lifestyles.

He also shares glimpses into the less glamorous side of modeling and acting, including audition life, fitness routines, and behind-the-scenes moments from film sets and commercial shoots.

Kaestli mixes those industry updates with more personal hobbies like cooking, travel, outdoor activities, and wellness-focused routines. He enjoys surfing, swimming, martial arts, basketball, and spending time outdoors, especially near beaches.

Balancing Modeling and Acting

Even as his acting résumé continues growing, Kaestli still maintains strong ties to the fashion industry. His Instagram biography describes him simply as “A Frenchman living around the world,” reflecting the international lifestyle that continues shaping both his career and public image.

At the same time, acting appears to be taking a larger role in his professional life. Over the past few years, his credits have steadily shifted toward narrative projects, particularly vertical dramas and character-driven screen roles.

For now, Kaestli seems to be balancing both worlds at once—continuing his work in fashion while gradually establishing himself as a familiar face in short-form entertainment.
