Jonathan Whitesell

Jonathan Whitesell, a Canadian dude from Duncan, BC, kinda snuck his way into the hearts of sci-fi and fantasy fans everywhere. Seriously, if you watched TV in the last decade and love anything even a little weird or mysterious, you’ve probably seen his face. He’s one of those actors who pops up and you’re like, “Wait, I know that guy!” His credits? Not too shabby. He’s tangled with aliens and government secrets on The X-Files (yeah, the classic one), battled post-apocalyptic drama in The 100, and got wrapped up in all sorts of witchy chaos on Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. The wild part is, he’s not just some background character—he’s actually got range. One episode he’s all brooding and intense, the next he’s cracking a sly grin and dropping a one-liner. That’s probably why casting directors keep calling him back. Whitesell’s got this vibe where he fits in with the supernatural crowd, but you’d still believe he’s just some guy you’d bump into at a coffee shop in Vancouver. Honestly, the guy’s work is a testament to how Canadian actors just quietly dominate genre TV. He’s building this resume that’s basically a highlight reel of cult favorites. Whether he’s facing off against monsters or just trying to survive another day in a doomed society, he brings a little bit of that West Coast easygoing energy to every role. Bottom line? If you spot him in a show, it’s probably worth sticking around.
