Multi-talented actor, Jovan Armand, is best known for his role of Pedro Peña, one of the supporting leads in the DC Comics film Shazam! (2019)
Prior to filming "Shazam," Jovan played Brick's best friend, Troy, on ABC's hit show "The Middle." With additional television credits including "Hawaii Five-O," "Parenthood," "Shameless," "Children's Hospital," Nickelodeon's "Bella and the Bulldogs" and more, Jovan has demonstrated his talent and ability to connect with audiences.
The young actor of Salvadorian and Mexican descent has also been able to expand his resume with roles in many short films. Jovan starred as lead character, Gabe, in the 2017 film "Drowning," which went on to win an Imagen Award for Best Theatrical Short. He also starred as 'Chub/Diego' in the 2014 film "Chub." After traveling the short film circuit, "Chub" won at the Gasparilla International Film Festival, International Film Awards Berlin and Sarasota Film Festival, in addition to being nominated at the Miami Film Festival and for an Imagen Award. Jovan's stand-out performances don't stop there as he also starred as 'Francisco' in the film "Miracle Maker."
Fourteen years working as an actor has taught Jovan that having various talents is always a good thing. After portraying a young rapper in his friends' music video and learning to rap the song, Jovan thought he would add music to his resume. Calling his style "a blend of lyricism and Modern Rap," Jovan strives to make music his generation would listen to without the negativity heard in mainstream rap. He has entertained crowds at the Viper Room, Avalon at Hollywood, Los Angeles and Orange County Fairs and at several private events. Jovan's new hit songs can be found on Amazon and Reverbnation.
Born in East Los Angeles, Jovan decided at the ripe age of 8 that he was destined to become an actor and has been pursuing his dreams ever since. He is inspired by the work of Jonah Hill, Jack Nicholson, Johnny Depp and Seth Rogen for their ability to dive into their characters. When he is not acting or working on his music, Jovan enjoys writing, playing video games and hanging out with friends.
