Although a veteran stage actor, Jonathan Breck first received national acclaim when he burst onto the scene as The Creeper in MGMs "Jeepers Creepers" (2001). When the film became the surprise hit of the year, his days of anonymity were over. The original "Jeepers Creepers" has since gone on to gross over 100 million worldwide.
Since then Mr. Breck has appeared in numerous film and television roles including: "Beat Boys, Beat Girls" (Independent), "Good Advice" (HBO), "Spiders" (New Image), "I Married a Monster" (UPN), "Jag" (CBS), "Star Trek: Voyager" (UPN), "VIP" (Fox), and "Push" (ABC).
In 2003, Mr. Breck reprised his role as The Creeper in "Jeepers Creepers 2". Critics described his performance in the sequel as "nothing short of brillianthe firmly establishes himself as an iconone of the classic movie monsters of all time."
"Jeepers Creepers 2" has become an instant classic, already grossing over 100 million dollars worldwide. MGM Studios, overjoyed with the success of the sequel, is rumored to have already ordered a third film to be produced, although details are thin on the ground. With the completion of this trilogy, it appears Mr. Breck could stand poised to take his place as "The Freddy Krueger for the new generation".
In early 2004, Jonathan filmed the Sci-Fi action thriller "DREAMLAND". "DREAMLAND" is a plot-twisting, mind-bending thrill of a movie set around the famed "Area 51" in Nevada. It was released in 2005. Most recently, he wrapped the film "I LEFT ME", a dark comedy which played at The Sundance Film Festival in 2005. In "I LEFT ME", he stars as a man AND his clone, the film is set in the year 2025. He cites playing both characters in the same film as "his most challenging acting role thus far".
When not on set filming movies, Mr. Breck enjoys returning to his roots in the theatre. He can currently be seen on stage at The Evidence Room in Los Angeles in the hit show "Peace Squad Goes 99".
Jonathan normally resides in Los Angeles, where he takes full advantage of the beautiful weather. He is an avid surfer, sailor, and hiker. That said, if the work is in New York that is where he will be, for periods of time. His favorite "past time" is to travel. There is nothing like "jumping on a train or a plane and getting lost. I learn more about myself in those moments than in anything else I do".
