Next person biography:
Jarod Joseph was born in Calgary, Alberta, where he grew up as an athlete, excelling in both hockey and basketball. As an entertainer at heart, Jarod never considered a career in the entertainment industry until a friend pointed out his natural aptitude for the business.
In 2007, Jarod made the bold decision to relocate to Vancouver, packing a few belongings and taking a chance on his acting dreams. His gamble paid off, as he quickly established himself as a newcomer to watch, securing recurring roles on major American networks.
Jarod's early success was marked by his breakout role in the blockbuster fantasy adventure film Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, where he shared the screen with an all-star cast including Sean Bean and Uma Thurman. This pivotal moment in his career was soon followed by guest star appearances on FOX's Human Target and AMC's The Killing.
As his career continued to build momentum, Jarod landed recurring roles on ABC's fantasy series Once Upon a Time, the J.J. Abrams-produced, FOX cult hit show Fringe, The CW's hit drama series The LA Complex, and a series regular position opposite Thandie Newton in DirecTV's original series Rogue.
Jarod's star continued to rise, with no signs of slowing down. In 2015, he joined the cast of ABC's summer hit Mistresses for the show's third season, and recently returned to shooting The CW's futuristic drama The 100 in the role of fan favorite Nathan Miller. He also starred as the lead in the Canadian series Coded, earning a UBCP/ACTRA Awards Best Actor nomination for his performance.
