It is a pleasure to welcome actor Russ Russo to The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast. 

Russ stands as a luminary in New York City’s vibrant film and television landscape, having cultivated his craft at T Schreiber under the mentorship of the same guiding hand that shaped the talents of Edward Norton. His career is a testament to his versatility and dedication, marked by a rich tapestry of roles that span genres and narratives. From his riveting turn as John, a rebel hostage in NBC’s Revolution, to his portrayal of an enigmatic Eastern European director in Ryan Phillippe’s directorial debut, Catch Hell, Russ’s performances resonate with depth and authenticity. 

 In the acclaimed 2015 film Act of War by Revolver Entertainment, Russ Russo brought to life the harrowing journey of an Iraq war veteran grappling in the aftermath of PTSD, which earned widespread acclaim and the coveted Best Actor award at New York City’s Take Two Film Festival. His talent shines brightly alongside an ensemble cast of Book of Love, a film that opened the prestigious Tribeca Film Festival in 2016. With each role, Russ delves deep into the psyche of his characters, infusing them with nuance and humanity. In 2022, Russ starred in the short film Victim No. 6, which garnered him numerous Best Actor nominations from esteemed film festivals worldwide. 

In this episode of The Jake’s Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, he discussed working with Mark Pellegrino on NBC’s Revolution and appearing in Catch Hell. He also discussed portraying Eddi Sebastian, a video editor who discovers he has the power to re-edit the last 24 hours of his life, in Prime Video’s Chaser.
