Leonardo Nam

Leonardo Nam is an accomplished American actor, born on November 5, 1979. His birthplace is Argentina, where he was born to South Korean immigrant parents. His journey took him to Australia at a young age, before he finally settled in the United States in the 1990s to kick-start his acting career. He gained fame with his role as Roy in The Perfect Score (2004), but further recognition awaited him with his roles in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006) and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 (2008). His most notable recent role has been Felix Lutz in Westworld (2016–2020), which expanded his fame significantly.

Before finding his footing in Hollywood, Nam embarked on his acting journey in New York City.

Nam reprised the role of Brian McBrian in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2, after a smaller part in the first movie. He also featured in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift as Morimoto.
