Coming off a long, successful gymnastics career, Danell Leyva is fully devoting himself to his acting career and has purchased a production company, which he named "Parallel Entertainment," according to NBC Sports.
Leyva, a two-time Olympian, has been an elite since 2006 when he competed at his first U.S. National Championships and won the all-around, floor, and high bar titles. He only continued to grow from there, earning spots on the London and Rio Olympic teams where he secured a total of three medals.
After over a decade of elite gymnastics, Leyva's focus has shifted. He's no longer training gymnastics and said he doesn't see himself returning, but he hasn't ruled it out completely. For now, he is pursuing his movie-making dreams.
"The dream is to definitely make movies," Leyva said.
