In August 2021, it was announced that Gibson had joined the cast of the CBS soap opera The Young and the Restless as Noah Newman, the son of supercouple Nick and Sharon (Joshua Morrow and Sharon Case), taking over the role from Robert Adamson.[4][5] Gibson had previously auditioned for a small role on the soap a few years prior but was unsuccessful, which Gibson believed was because they asked him to sing.[7] When Gibson's agent sent him a casting notice about the role of Noah, Gibson sent in a self-tape.[7] The producers contacted Gibson to say that they were bringing in him for a callback but they did not really like the tape, which Gibson believed was because he played Noah more on his "tense and greedy side".[7] Speaking about his second audition, Gibson revealed, "I changed it up this time and I guess they liked it because they brought me in to test with Joshua Morrow. It was a really chill experience. Everyone was super-accommodating. I actually dropped one of my very first lines, and Josh took the rap for it. He said, 'That was my fault, man, sorry.' He totally saved me."[7] Gibson called Morrow "such a nice dude" and explained that he welcomed him after he was cast on the soap, and that Morrow made it easier for him on his first day on set, where he felt a bit nervous due to it being "such a big show".[7] Gibson revealed that he was "loving" being on the soap.[7]
Gibson made his first appearance as Noah in October 2021.[3][8] Since joining the soap, Gibson's storylines as Noah have included his heartbreak with his ex-girlfriend Tessa Porter (Cait Fairbanks), moving from London back to Genoa City, working at New Hope, developing a romance with Allie Nguyen (Kelsey Wang) and the introduction of Noah's ex-girlfriend, Audra Charles (Zuleyka Silver), who broke his heart.[9][10][11] In November 2022, it was revealed Gibson had been moved to recurring status on the soap,[11] and continued to make sporadic appearances through the following year.[12]
In 2023, Gibson had a minor role in the Space opera film Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire.[13] Though he only worked there for less than two weeks, Gibson called being part of the film "incredible" and an "amazing experience" and he enjoyed working with director Zack Snyder and actress Sofia Boutella.[13] Gibson has also been part of Brad Everett Young's "Dream Loud campaign", an organisation which works on preserving arts and music programs in schools.[13] In 2025, it was announced that Gibson had been cast in the new Sci-Fi movie Fugitive from Asteron, where he will portray Arial, one of the leading characters.[14][15]
