American actor, producer, and writer Guy Nardulli has forged a unique career in film and television after taking one of the industry's most unconventional paths. Beginning his acting career at the age of 29, he has appeared in major studio films, acclaimed television series, and independent productions while establishing himself as a producer and storyteller.
Known for his commanding screen presence and authenticity, Nardulli has built a reputation portraying law enforcement officers, blue-collar workers, authority figures, and complex characters on both sides of the law.
Nardulli is best known for his recurring role as Johnny "The Zip" in Paramount+'s *Tulsa King* opposite Sylvester Stallone. He portrayed Gio in Netflix's *Big Mistakes* alongside Dan Levy. He also starred as Rodney and served as producer on the crime thriller *Dirty Hands*, released by Saban Films. His feature film credits also include *Red Notice* alongside Dwayne Johnson, Ryan Reynolds, and Gal Gadot, *Under the Silver Lake*, *Call Me King*, and numerous independent films.
His television work includes appearances on *House M.D.*, *Monk*, *Criminal Minds*, *CSI: NY*, *How I Met Your Mother*, *Vegas*, *Justified*, *The Last Ship*, *The Bold and the Beautiful*, *General Hospital*, and the award-winning comedy series *Where the Bears Are*. In addition to acting, he wrote, produced, and starred in the independent feature *Last Goodbye* and continues to develop original film and television projects.
Born and raised in Harwood Heights, Illinois, Nardulli originally pursued a career in football. A three-time All-American at Elmhurst College, he went on to play professionally for the Bolzano Giants in Italy before continuing his career with teams in Ohio and Illinois, finishing with the Chicago Thunder. He was later inducted into both the Elmhurst College Athletics Hall of Fame and the Chicago Thunder Hall of Fame in recognition of his accomplishments on the field. After retiring from football, he unexpectedly entered the entertainment world as a member of the legendary male dance troupe The Chippendales. That experience opened the door to acting and led to his first on-screen role on *General Hospital*.
More than two decades later, Nardulli has established himself as a versatile actor, producer, and writer whose career continues to evolve both in front of and behind the camera. His unconventional journey from Hall of Fame athlete to accomplished actor, producer, and storyteller has shaped a career defined by resilience, authenticity, and a passion for compelling stories.
