Jacob Zachar's journey in the entertainment industry began in Chicago, where he cut his teeth in the local theater scene. His early start was marked by a notable appearance in the film "Drunkboat," alongside A-listers John Malkovich, John Goodman, and Dana Delaney, which served as a catalyst for his decision to relocate to Los Angeles.
Within a remarkably short period of six months in LA, Jacob landed the lead role in his first pilot audition for the hit series "Greek," which went on to run for four successful years and was later syndicated on Netflix. This auspicious start set the stage for a diverse array of projects that would follow in the aftermath of the show's finale.
Jacob's subsequent work showcased his impressive range, with voice-over credits on "King of the Hill" and "Surf's Up," guest appearances on "CSI" and "House," and a role in the blockbuster film "Transformers: The Last Knight." He also lent his talents to various new media projects, including Legendary Digital's acquired film "The Hive," and booked a total of six national commercials in the past year, with the notable highlight being a Subaru commercial directed by the esteemed BAFTA award-winning filmmaker Lance Acord.
When not in front of the camera, Jacob has explored his creative side by producing a short film, "Hidden America," which sheds light on the issue of homelessness in Sacramento, as well as comedic pilots "Scrappers" and "Action Dan." With a Vimeo reel available for viewing, Jacob Zachar continues to make a lasting impact in the entertainment industry.
