John Cho

Actor John Cho first started catching people's attention in the 1999 breakthrough hit comedy "American Pie," in which he popularized the slang term "MILF." Next he achieved near-household name status starring as Harold Lee in the cult comedies "Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle" and "Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay." As one of today's most exciting actors, Cho continues to deliver compelling performances in comedy and drama.

Cho was last seen starring opposite Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine in J.J. Abrams' "Star Trek" as Lieutenant Hikaru Sulu. Additional film credits include the Weitz Bros' "American Dreamz," starring alongside Willem Dafoe and Hugh Grant, "Better Luck Tomorrow," the "American Pie" series, "Pavilion of Women," Steven Soderbergh's "Solaris" and the Best Picture Oscar winner "American Beauty." In addition to numerous guest roles on television, he was a series regular on the Weitz Bros' "Off Centre" and had a recurring role on the last season of "Kitchen Confidential."

Born in Seoul, Korea, and raised in Los Angeles, California, Cho began acting while studying English literature at the University of California, Berkeley. He toured with his first show, "The Woman Warrior" -- an adaptation of the renowned memoir by Maxine Kingston -- across the country. Other stage roles include Laertes in the Singapore Repertory Theater's production of "Hamlet" and a variety of shows for East West Players. He resides in Los Angeles.
