Jason was born on January 14th in 1969. He didn't really get his start in acting until he was a kid. He is a younger brother of an actress named Justine. His first start in acting was a cameo in Little House on the Prairie.
.
Jason and his sister Justine are considered talented actors. Although Jason has continued on, his older sister has backed away from the fame for now.
However, their relationship had seemed strained as she doesn't see him as much of an actor, or a big fan of him.
He stared as Ricky Schroder in "Silver Spoons" when he was a teenager. He was in the show for a few years. He even appeared in other TV shows like It's your Move, St. Elsewhere, A taste for Killing, this can't be love, and Arrested Development
His first movie starring was in Teen Wolf Too. A sequel to a teen wolf movie that stared Michael J. Fox back in the 80's. I don't think I've ever seen that movie. He did ok in that, but he was other movies like Love Stinks, The Breakup, Mr. Maginoum's Wonder Emporium and many more. Some I've seen...and some I didn't.
I wish I got into a show that he was known for and brought back his star power. He starred in a hit show called Arrested Development. It was a black comedy starring him as a son of I guess a businessman, and it involved some scandals that make his life worse.
It was canceled but picked up in another station and finished out the series. However, allegations on a certain actor of the show tarnished what little life it had left.
Jason starred in a lot of movies from Horrible Bosses to Dodgeball. Another was Starsky and Hutch which I did see.
It followed the 70's show which I never saw about two detectives. Jason played a sidekick to Vince Vaughn's villain who is smuggling cocaine. It was actually pretty good. An interesting Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson movie. But Jason only had a side roll.
He started getting more roles for movies. Another being Horrible Bosses. He played a character who wanted to deal with his horrible boss (portrayed by Kevin Spacey). He isn't alone. Jason Sudeikis and Charlie Day are his friends that have to deal with their own boss problems.
Eventually, it works out for them. They had a sequel where they plan to kidnap the son of a boss (played by the hot Chris Pine), but it backfires for them in many ways. Both movies were very good...but I could only watch the sequel more.
Jason eventually started to do some voice acting as he got a role of a fox working with a bunny to stop crime on a Disney/Pixar movie called "Zootopia" Jason voices a fox who helps stop a crimewave going around.
Eventually, they solve it and save everyone. He recently voiced him again in the sequel which did ok. However, I haven't seen it yet.
Jason also went back to TV to star in a show called "OZARK' Jason portrays the lead and it involves a Mexican Drug Ring that went horribly wrong. Jason does a pretty decent job on this show. Sadly, I never got into it, but it made his comeback to TV pretty strong.
Today, Jason turns 57 and he's still acting today. He has a wife and two daughters and has been nonstop with acting as well as activism as well.
Jason's star hasn't dimmed or brightened...it just is glowing as bright as it was when he came back to TV on Arrested Development. Want to wish him the happiest of birthdays. Enjoy it, Jason.
