Alabama Football Player Shines in Netflix Series

Couch-hopping, working part-time jobs, and taking every extra role he could find before finally landing bigger opportunities. His biggest role so far is playing Cody Bowman in Boots. “I have a twin brother, and we’re this big platoon going through boot camp — showing what it’s like to go through boot camp in the Marines. We’re all wearing our own masks in life, and this show is kind of about ripping those off and showing who you really are,” Moore said.

Based on a true story, Boots explores the intense physical and mental challenges Marines face during training. “We recreated everything they go through in boot camp. The blessing is, they yell cut and I go to a cool tent. Our Marines and military don’t have that — they’re living it, doing it for our country,” said Moore.

Moore hopes the series will give audiences a deeper appreciation for those who serve. “You’ll see the physical toll, but also the mental toll. Hopefully people will see — if we’re seeing these sides to these characters, imagine what our real Marines are going through,” said Moore.

For Moore, Boots is more than just a role — it’s proof that no dream is too big. “You just have to be patient and work hard enough to make them come true,” said Moore. Boots will be available to stream on Netflix starting October 9, 2025.
