Jason Butler Harner Bio: 

JASON BUTLER HARNER made his feature film debut in Clint Eastwood’s Oscar nominated CHANGELING (with Angelina Jolie). With a wide variety of roles and mediums, independent film has been a constant passion and priority. THE BIG BEND is, without question, one of the most remarkable, shooting in the height of summer in the far-off-the-grid Big Bend of Texas, atop a cliff.

Recent indies of note also include EDGE OF EVERYTHING (SBIFF Winner) and the Oscar shortlisted THE ANNE FRANK GIFT SHOP, in which he stars and co-produced. In addition to memorable work on SCANDAL, RAY DONOVAN, HOMELAND, HIGH MAINTENANCE, and ALACTRAZ, recent screen work includes SUGAR (with Colin Farrell), MONSTERS: THE LYLE AND ERIK MENENDEZ STORY, RABBIT HOLE (opposite Kiefer Sutherland), THE HANDMAIDS TALE, as well as his much-lauded turn as Agent Roy Petty on the Netflix hit OZARK. Harner has performed on and off-Broadway, on London’s West End, and across the country in an array of classics, groundbreaking revivals, and world premieres.

On Broadway, he’s appeared in Tom Stoppard’s landmark trilogy and Tony Award winning THE COAST OF UTOPIA, as well as THE CRUCIBLE (with Saoirse Ronan and Ben Whishaw), and most recently opposite Janet McTeer in BERNHARDT/HAMLET. He won an Obie Award for Ivo VonHove’s HEDDA GABLER and has multiple Drama Desk nominations. Other notable stage productions include THE VILLAGE BIKE (opposite Greta Gerwig), THROUGH A GLASS DARKLY (opposite Carey Mulligan), THE CHERRY ORCHARD (Mark Taper Forum with Annette Bening and Sarah Paulson), THE GLASS MENAGERIE (opposite Sally Field), HAMLET, and Mike Bartlett’s hilariously moving COCK (opposite Corey Michael Smith). He holds an MFA from NYU’s acclaimed Graduate Acting Program and currently resides in Los Angeles with his phenomenal dog Toupeé.
