Early life

Born Lonnie G. Segers Jr., he is the oldest son of Lonnie G. Segers Sr. and Sandra Eldridge. Geno has been with girlfriend Maria Canapino since 2011.

Segers was a footballer, wrestler, and track athlete in high school and college. He played football at Western Carolina University.

Segers then played professional rugby league. He played in the American National Rugby League and won two caps for United States national rugby league team against Wales national rugby league team in 1995. From there, he moved to New Zealand to play for the Richmond Rovers rugby league team.[1]

Career

At the suggestion of a friend, Segers auditioned for voice ads at a New Zealand radio station. His natural bass tone earned him a lot of attention, and caught the attention of an agent that led Segers to be cast as Mufasa in the Australian production of The Lion King. He went on to star in the American and Chinese productions as well.[2]

In 2010, Segers gained a main role on Pair of Kings as Mason Makoola.

In 2018, Segers recurred on the TV series Knight Squad as the main villain Ryker. He also reprised this role in a crossover episode of Henry Danger.
