J.J. Soria

Born and raised in Los Angeles, Soria never sets his sights on becoming an actor. In fact, sports were his passion, and he played just about everyone one of them as a child. By the time college rolled around, however, Soria decided to take a few acting class. He needed the credits and acting courses seemed like an easy way to score an A. However, almost immediately after taking his first class, Soria knew he had found his calling. Since he already had the luxury of living in Los Angeles, Soria began going on auditions. He started landing bit parts, primarily as Latin gangsters and inmates, on shows like "The Shield" (FX, 2002-08), "Lincoln Heights" (ABC Family, 2007-09), and "NCIS" (CBS, 2003-). His first big break came in 2008 when he was cast as a high school student in the Steve Coogan comedy "Hamlet 2." The film premiered at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival to rave reviews, thus providing an added boost to Soria's acting career. Over the next two years, he landed small parts in the blockbuster action movies, "Fast & Furious" (2009) and "Crank: High Voltage" (2009), as well as guest spots on the highly acclaimed cable dramas, "Sons of Anarchy" (FX, 2008-14) and "Dexter" (Showtime, 2006-13), before nabbing the part of Hector Cruz on "Army Wives" in 2012. Although his role as the newlywed Army corporal was initially supposed to last a few episodes, Soria was bumped up to a series regular when the show's seventh season debuted in March of 2013.
