Jeremy Davies made his film debut starring in David O. Russell’s acclaimed first film, Spanking the Monkey, which won the Audience Award at the Sundance Film Festival and earned Jeremy an Independent Spirit Award nomination. Davies’ portrayal of Tom Hanks’ interpreter, CPL Upham, in Steven Spielberg’s Academy Award-winning film, Saving Private Ryan, garnered notable critical acclaim for Davies, including a co-nomination for a SAG award for “Outstanding Performance by a Cast.”

Davies’ other film credits include Steven Soderbergh’s Solaris with George Clooney and Viola Davis, Werner Herzog’s Rescue Dawn with Christian Bale, Going All the Way with Ben Affleck; Wim Wenders’ Million Dollar Hotel, Lars von Trier’s Dogville and Manderlay with Nicole Kidman and The House That Jack Built with Matt Dillon, The Locusts with Vince Vaughn, Nell with Jodie Foster, and Twister with Philip Seymour Hoffman.

In television, Davies was invited to join the cast of JJ Abrams’ groundbreaking series, “Lost”, and his character, Daniel Faraday, quickly became a favorite of critics and fans. After “Lost”, Davies joined Graham Yost’s Emmy and Peabody award-winning show, “Justified”, and his ferocious, fragile Richard the Third-esque portrayal of Harlan, Kentucky outlaw, Dickie Bennett, earned him two Emmy nominations and one win.

Davies’ television work includes HBO’s The Laramie Project, Bryan Fuller’s celebrated series, “Hannibal” and “American Gods“, Greg Berlanti’s “Arrow“, “Flash“, and “Supergirl”, as well as “Sleepy Hollow”, “Constantine”, “Lucifer”, “Texas Rising” with Bill Paxton, and David Lynch’s reboot of “Twin Peaks”. More recently, Davies guest-starred on Dick Wolf’s acclaimed series, “FBI”.

In the Gaming world, Davies won a BAFTA award for Best Actor/Performer for his acclaimed portrayal of ‘Baldur’ in Sony Playstation’s award-winning Game of the Year, God of War, directed by Cory Barlog.
