Kirk Acevedo

Kirk Acevedo is one of those intense, ever-present character actors whose face you know even if the name takes a second. His work on Oz as Miguel Alvarez was raw and unforgettable, the kind of prison drama performance that stays with you, and he brought that same coiled energy to Fringe as Charlie Francis. He moves easily between gritty cable dramas, war films like The Thin Red Line, and comic-book TV like Arrow. What I appreciate most is his commitment, he plays damaged, dangerous men with a humanity that keeps them from ever feeling like cliches.

Kirk Acevedo (born November 27, 1971) is an American actor from Brooklyn, New York, who studied at LaGuardia High School and the State University of New York at Purchase. He is known for television roles including Miguel Alvarez on HBO's Oz, Charlie Francis on Fringe, and appearances in series such as Arrow and 12 Monkeys, as well as film work including Band of Brothers and The Thin Red Line.
