He’s appeared in several feature films (like Ali, The Seventh Son, Stonewall and Shut In), along with multiple popular TV shows (like Bates Motel, The American Embassy, Ray Donovan, John Christmas, That’s Life, Michael Hayes and Robbery Homicide Division). However, one of his most noteworthy roles is starring alongside Patricia Arquette in Medium.
