Right from his childhood, Nick demonstrated an affinity for acting as he would spend the better part of his leisure time enjoying movies and play-acting. He revealed to ‘The Hollywood Reporter’ during an interview that he took to acting when he was only 9 years old. Nick was practically a novice when he was selected to depict the character of Ryder Scanlon in the comedic TV series ‘Melissa & Joey’, in 2011. In order to shoot for the episodes of ‘Melissa & Joey’, Nick postponed completing his graduation from New York University. According to a report by ‘Variety’, Robinson was initially considered to enact the part of Augustus Waters in the film ‘The Fault in Our Stars’ but the role was ultimately awarded to Ansel Elgort. Nick is not a very gregarious person which is typified by his near absence from social media. He closed his Twitter and Instagram accounts in 2014 and 2015, respectively.
