Name: Jay Baruchel

Biography: Jonathan Adam Saunders "Jay" Baruchel (born April 9, 1982) is a Canadian actor. After appearing briefly in Cameron Crowe's Oscar-winning Almost Famous, Baruchel won the role of Steven Karp on Judd Apatow's acclaimed yet short-lived television series Undeclared, where he starred alongside Seth Rogen, Carla Gallo, Charlie Hunnam, and Monica Keena. He then appeared with James Van Der Beek in Roger Avary's The Rules of Attraction. In 2004, he played boxing hopeful Danger Barch in Clint Eastwood's Million Dollar Baby, which received an Oscar for Best Picture the following year. Baruchel was among those thanked by Eastwood during his acceptance speech. Baruchel appeared in the films Knocked Up (which reunited him with Judd Apatow, Jason Segel, and Seth Rogen), I'm Reed Fish, and Just Buried and the Ben Stiller-directed Tropic Thunder alongside Jack Black, Nick Nolte, Steve Coogan and Robert Downey Jr. He co-starred with Seth Rogen in the 2007 pre-pre-production trailer Jay and Seth vs. The Apocalypse, a film created by Rogen and Evan Goldberg as a strategy to garner interest and funding. In 2008, he appeared briefly in Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist.
