After completion of filming on The Fabelmans, LaBelle moved to Los Angeles to pursue more film, television and theater projects as an actor, with intentions to also direct at some point. In 2022, LaBelle joined the cast of the Showtime series adaptation of American Gigolo, in the role of the young version of Julian Kaye, played by Jon Bernthal. That same year, he was cast in one of the lead roles in Adam Carter Rehmeier's coming-of-age comedy The Snack Shack, which began filming that summer.
