About me

View profile
Jacob Katana is an actor with Thai roots, born in Bangkok and raised in the "Oberpfalz", Germany. His journey into acting was forged through practical experience rather than traditional training: starting with school theater performances, followed by music and stage work with his rock band, and eventually transitioning to on-camera roles.

Since 2020, Jacob has been consistently involved in film productions, beginning as an extra and progressing to supporting roles, picture double, and light double in projects such as Tatort: Zugzwang, Behringer – Die Toten Fall 4, Pumuckl, Cliffhanger 2, The Old Guard 2, and Nine Perfect Strangers 2. He has attended acting workshops and continues to hone his craft, including voice training, as he also works as a voice actor.

Jacob brings a versatile, ethnically ambiguous, and international appearance, making him highly castable across diverse roles. His acting style is calm, focused, and physically nuanced, often understated yet emotionally intense—particularly suited for roles that convey depth through feeling rather than dialogue. Reliable, experienced on set, and open to new challenges, Jacob excels in front of the camera, delivering performances with both subtlety and humor.
