Biography

John Novak is a multifaceted Canadian actor whose life took an unexpected turn at birth, as he was born in Venezuela to parents who were merely visiting the country.

As his acting career began to take shape in the mid-1980s, Novak's breakthrough performance came in 1994 when he shared the screen with the talented Brad Pitt in the film "Legends of the Fall".

However, it wasn't until the year 2001 that Novak's career truly gained momentum, as he landed the role of a villainous evil djinn in the film "Wishmaster 3: Beyond the Gates of Hell", a character that would become a defining aspect of his acting persona.

This success was quickly followed by another installment in the "Wishmaster" franchise, "Wishmaster 4: The Prophecy Fulfilled", released in 2002.

Novak's acting career continued to flourish in the following years, with a notable appearance in the 2007 film "War".

In addition to his film work, Novak has also made a name for himself in the world of television, with recurring roles in popular series such as "Smallville" in 2001 and "Supernatural" in 2005.
