Biography

Jonathan Seda, a talented American actor of Puerto Rican descent, has made a significant impact in the entertainment industry with his versatile performances. He is particularly well-known for his portrayal of Detective Antonio Dawson in NBC's popular drama series Chicago P.D., as well as his role as Detective Paul Falsone in the critically acclaimed series Homicide: Life on the Street.

In addition to his television work, Seda has also appeared in several films, showcasing his range as an actor. One of his most notable roles was in the 1992 film Gladiator, where he auditioned and landed a part as an amateur boxer. This early success sparked his interest in acting, leading him to take on various film projects.

One of his most memorable roles was alongside Jennifer Lopez in the biographical drama Selena, where he played the role of Chris PĂ©rez, the husband of the titular character. This performance helped to establish him as a prominent figure in both the Hispanic and non-Hispanic communities.

Seda's television appearances have been equally impressive, with notable roles in projects such as Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg's The Pacific, a follow-up to the acclaimed series Band of Brothers.
