Interview w/ Jaime Callica | AfterBuzz TV's Spotlight On

Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Jaime Callica is the hottest thing out of Canada since the two Ryan's (Gosling & Reynolds). Only acting for a mere three years he has fast become one of Hollywood's rising stars and will next be seen as a series regular in Tyler Perry's highly anticipated new drama for BET, "Ruthless" (a spin-off of fan favorite, "The Oval"), which premieres Thursday, March 19th. He will additionally be seen in the new Disney Channel original movie UPSIDE-DOWN MAGIC (Summer 2020) based on The New York Times bestselling fantasy fiction children's books of the same name. Audiences have just begun to get a taste for this multi-faceted, hard-working actor on his rise to the top while he curates an impressive resume alongside Hollywood elite. "Ruthless," the upcoming one-hour drama series by Tyler Perry for BET+, is a spinoff of "The Oval" and follows 'Ruth Truesdale' (Melissa L. Williams) as she's forced to play nice with a scandalous religious cult of powerful sex crazed fanatics in the hopes of freeing herself and her daughter. Callica plays 'Agent Brian Rollins' a driven, dedicated worker that loves his wife, and loves his job. When he receives a call to action, he knows he has to step in. In UPSIDE-DOWN MAGIC, ten-year-old 'Nory Horace' discovers she has magical powers and can turn into animals but can't quite get it right. Nory attends a school for other kids with "upside-down magic," and her father, played by Callica, wants to keep her powers a secret. Viewers may also recognize Callica from some of his past TV and film roles including "UnREAL," "Lucifer," "Wayward Pines," Spike Lee's TALES OF HOOD, and most recently alongside Kelly Rowland in MERRY LIDDLE CHRISTMAS.  Learn more about your ad choices.
