Jonathan Gomez

Jonathan Gomez has been hopping around some seriously wild sets lately—think stampeding rhinos, hormone-crazed cartoons, and retro 1980s workout gear. People probably spot his name in the credits and go, “Wait, where do I know that guy from?” First off, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017)—that’s the one where The Rock and Kevin Hart get sucked into a jungle video game. It’s pure chaos: jungle booby traps, body swaps, wild animals, and a lot of screaming (sometimes deserved). Jonathan’s role might not have been front and center, but, let’s be real, those big ensemble movies need people who can nail the vibe. Then there’s Big Mouth (2017), that animated Netflix show that’s basically puberty on steroids. It’s all cringey jokes, awkward confessions, and those monstrous hormone monsters that probably give parents nightmares. Jonathan pops up in the mix, lending his voice to the madness. He’s got range, clearly—not everyone can swing from family-friendly jungle mayhem to raunchy cartoon humor. And Physical (2021)? Completely different energy. Set in the sweaty, pastel-soaked world of ‘80s aerobics, it’s about a woman clawing her way through the self-help scene, dealing with body image, ambition, and a ton of spandex. Jonathan’s part might be smaller, but hey, every story needs background characters who make the world feel real. So, even if you don’t instantly recognize him, Gomez’s work quietly holds up some of your favorite scenes. He’s one of those actors you start noticing everywhere once you know the name.
