Born in Brooklyn but raised in North Carolina, he graduated from Mount Tambor High School in 1993 and moved immediately into local North Carolina theater. A lot of iconic and gay-positive roles:
Stanley in A Streetcar Named Desire
Puck in A Midsummer Night's Dream
Alan Strang, the one who gets naked on stage in Equus
Clifford Bradshaw, the Christopher Isherwood character, in Cabaret
The drag queen Albin in La Cage aux Folles
The closeted, homophobic Roy Cohn in Angels in America
His tv career began with some voiceovers in the 90s, followed by a starring role in One Tree Hill, 2003-2012, as Junk Moretti, a high school student with a "girlfriend who lives in Canada" (we've all been there; mine lived in Paris).
In a two-episode story arc on Eastbound & Down in 2013, Cullen played Mark, "the smarmy, slow-motion punching, donut-gifting smuck of a rental car company manager," boss of Danny McBride's washed-up baseball player.
This led to a role as Brock, head security guard of the Gemstone Compound in Righteous Gemstones Episodes 1.6 and 1.7. Scotty, Gideon's "friend from California" and co-conspirator in the blackmail scheme, flirts with him to get easy access to compound, even asking for shirtless photos. He is shown reading a gay magazine latr.
Since the Gemstones, Cullen has had starring roles in Black Bird, The Outer Banks, and Your Honor, and he has Rebel Girl coming up.

Remember Baby Billy's son Harmon, played by Jeremy T. Thomas? In Righteous Gemstones Season 2 he grows up and has a wife and son (played by Cullen's wife and son, Madison and Louie Chaplin Moss).
Although there are several hanging-out-with-friends photos, I'm going to categorize Cullen as straight.
We get a butt shot in Underground (2016), about the underground railroad in antebellum Georgia. Cullen plays an incompetent slave-catcher in two episodes.
And another in Assassination Nation (2018). Cullen played an anti-gay politician who secretly hires male prostitutes and dresses in drag. When he is outed, he commits suicide.
A frontal in Avalanche (2018): the avalanche traps a librarian, his wife, and her lover in the house. Here Cullen is leaving the bathroom to have sex with a naked lady, so I assume he's the lover.

Later Cullen has played a detective in Your Honor, a cop in The Walking Dead, and ..his list of credits on IMDB goes on like that.

Brock returns in Episode 1.9, to deny BJ admission after he and Judy break up, criticize his name, and act like a macho jerk.
In Episode 2.3, he announces that Eli's friend Junior is at the front gate. Eli says to not admit him, and they argue.
Not a lot of beefcake photos on his social media. His instagram is devoted mostly to photos of his projects, and his wife and family.
More after the break

Searching in gay hook up and porn sites has yielded nothing, but but at least he's been nude on stage and in some of his movies.

That's quite a lot of nudity for someone who gets mostly minor roles. Now, if he could just post some shirtless pics to his Instagram...
