Carlos Jacott

Carlos Jacott, born July 28, 1967, in the States, is one of those faces you totally recognize even if you can’t remember his name right away. The guy’s been popping up in all sorts of stuff since the '90s, and honestly, he’s the definition of a solid working actor. Not everybody gets to be the headliner, but you need dependable folks like him to keep the whole thing running. He’s probably best known for his roles in "Grosse Pointe Blank" (1997), "Being John Malkovich" (1999), and "She Spies" (2002). Each of those has its own cult following, and his characters always bring this offbeat energy. In "Grosse Pointe Blank," the dark comedy about a hitman going to his high school reunion, Jacott slides right into the weirdness without missing a beat. Then in "Being John Malkovich," where the plot is already bonkers, he somehow makes his smaller part stand out—no easy feat when the lead is literally crawling inside John Malkovich’s head. He’s also done his fair share of TV, bouncing around from crime dramas to comedies, always delivering exactly what the scene needs. Beyond acting, Jacott has dipped his toes into producing, which, let’s be real, is a smart move in an industry where you never know when the next call’s coming. He’s the kind of actor who quietly racks up credits and fans, weaving through genres and decades without making a big deal out of it. Just doing the work, no flash, all substance.
