Chatting with 'Sweet Magnolias' Star Logan Allen - Interview

Logan Allen talks about acting, writing, Florida football and returning to 'Sweet Magnolias' on Netflix.

I recently spoke with Allen about his acting career, his passion for Florida football and the return of ‘Sweet Magnolias’ for its fifth season on Netflix. We also discussed his interests in writing and acting, as well as our shared love of theme parks.

Netflix’s hit drama series ‘Sweet Magnolias’ returns for its fifth season yesterday, June 11, 2026. Series regular Allen, who plays Kyle Townsend, the son of JoAnna Garcia Swisher’s character Maddie, takes on an expanded role as his character continues to mature and carve out his own path while moving beyond many of the challenges that have shaped his life.

Born and raised in Central Florida, Allen is the second oldest of four children and knew at an early age that he wanted to pursue acting. His credits include commercials for TruMoo, Universal Orlando Resort and Volcano Bay. He was also a series regular on Nickelodeon’s ‘Talia in the Kitchen’, portraying Vinnie, and appeared as Kevin Ryan in the independent film ‘Bernie the Dolphin’.

Allen also runs a YouTube page called Its Logan.
