Jacob Scipio

Jacob Scipio (born January 10, 1993) is a London-born English screen actor and writer whose fast-rising profile has been shaped by high-octane franchise work and sharp character turns. Moving between British projects and Hollywood action, he’s become known for bringing intensity and charisma to roles that sit at the center of the story’s conflict.

Scipio’s international breakthrough arrived with Bad Boys for Life, where he played Armando Aretas opposite Will Smith and Martin Lawrence in the Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah-directed sequel. He later returned to the series in Bad Boys: Ride or Die, further cementing his place within one of modern action-comedy’s most recognizable brands.

Beyond the Bad Boys universe, Scipio has built a varied filmography that includes Tom Clancy’s Without Remorse as Hatchet, We Die Young as Tomas, and Expend4bles as Galan, alongside credits such as Cowboys & Angels and Bambino Mio. His work reflects a consistent pull toward bold, physical storytelling and morally complex characters.

Off-screen, Scipio has also pursued writing and entrepreneurship. In 2016, he co-founded CPO Productions, signaling a long-term commitment to developing projects as well as starring in them.
