Jaxodus Roman Pyle is an American actor known for his eccentricity both in the shots and behind the scenes. He was born on a winter Wednesday, January 5, 1983, the first child of Mary Gwendolyn Pyle, R.D. (née Browning) and Vietnam War veteran Sgt. David Eugene Pyle of the 105th United States Army Signal Corps. JAXODUS grew up with his younger brother Ryan Christopher Pyle in the refined Highlands area of Louisville, Kentucky. He played little league baseball as a kid and wrestled in high school for Our Lady of Providence (a 2001 alumnus) across the bridge.
His early performing arts career began in New York City on various television shows and commercials, including One Life to Live (1968) and Law & Order (1990), winning himself a Ron Millkie Award for Best Actor Performance in 2001. The following summer, JAXODUS kicked off his Hollywood debut when he was featured in two MTV top-chart music videos: as a rebel in frontman Jared Leto's 30 Seconds to Mars: Capricorn (A Brand New Name) (2002) and a boxer in "Dirty" by Christina Aguilera.
After a few scene studies and expression sessions under the instruction of Bobbie Shaw Chance, the young actor landed both a general meeting with casting director Mali Finn and a featured role in 10 Attitudes (2001). He then took the field with Ray Liotta to film Chasing 3000 (2010), rebelled with Charlie Hunnam on the series pilot of Sons of Anarchy (2008) and supported Armie Hammer in Billy: The Early Years (2008).
In 2009, his extreme brand GOOMBY teamed up with After-School All-Stars, a nonprofit organization led by Arnold Schwarzenegger, to help keep urban children safe and influence happy futures. Next was a grassroots campaign in Philadelphia to graffiti back home. Then a stint in the festival hit The Paper Tiger (2013) to directing Almost Ruined (2018). Childhood pal Major Dodge cast JAXODUS in the punk epic Bomb City (2017), a film awarded in double-digits and showcasing Marilyn Manson.
JAXODUS claims to pull a great deal of inspiration from both his ancient Roman ancestor Gaius Julius Caesar and a late cousin, Pulitzer Prize-winning American journalist and World War II correspondent Ernie Pyle. Similar to Ernie's notable column-formatted writings for the Scripps-Howard newspaper syndicate, JAXODUS wrote Volumes dé lâ Machine to exemplify his multifaceted thoughts and loud nature, stemmed from an excess dose of passion - "the genesis of genius" per Galileo. He's illustrious for mixing anecdotal expression into works of art via complex hero theory. His first name Jaxodus (eng. John-David or portmanteau Joda) is Latin and means "dreamer of the Roman gods" (fictor deorum) or "bright as a star" (clara sicut stella), seemingly seemly to his actual character, personality aside.
Of the more normal and formal, JAXODUS holds an Associate of Science in Production from Los Angeles Film School and studied Pre-law at Bellarmine University. He is the father of Iris Gweneth Pyle and married to Savannah-Cat Faith Pyle (née Wilson). They live in Hollywood together with doggy Roman.
