Jaime exudes energy and compassion in every project he appears in
Jaime Callica has joined the Season 3 cast of Lifetime’s critically acclaimed series ‘UnREAL’. Callica was thrilled to take on the role of Xavier, a hottie dancer from New Orleans. This role is different from any other character he has portrayed in the past, including going blonde for the role as Jay’s (Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman) new love interest. UnREAL gives a fictitious behind-the-scenes glimpse into the chaos surrounding the production of a dating competition program. The third season premieres on Monday, February 26th, 2018. Jaime’s character is introduced mid-March for five episodes this season.
Jaime is currently in production filming a lead role in the feature film ‘House on Holly Lane’ with co-stars Sarah Lancaster, Karen Holness and Gina Holden. Jaime also has a supporting lead role as Jared in the TV movie ‘Secret Millionaire’ with Steve Lund, Slobham Williams and Allie Bertram, which just aired on January 6th, 2018 on Pixl Network and is soon-to-be released on Lifetime. The busy actor also recently completed filming the short film ‘Sorry I Broke Your Heart’, directed by renowned director Heather Hawthorne-Doyle. The short is currently being entered in various festivals.
Jaime’s first introduction into the world of entertainment came with his talented turn as a dancer in ‘Percy Jackson and the Olympians,’ ‘Hellcats’, Sean Paul’s ‘Shades of Soul’, ‘Rosette’ and ‘Rags’. His break into acting came on The WB’s hit series ‘Smallville’. Jaime’s dancing skills have helped him book a number of roles that include a recurring role as a dancer on CBC TV’s critically acclaimed ‘The Romeo Section’, playing Don, a bartender by day who danced in drag by night! Jaime worked alongside heavyweights Brian Markinson, Andrew Airlie, and acclaimed executive producer Chris Haddock. He was also a ‘surprise’ in his guest star role on FOX’s hit series ‘Lucifer’ this season.
Jaime has a number of other outstanding television roles under his belt that include his recurring role as Simeon on the popular Fox TV series ‘Wayward Pines’ and a guest star role on CTV/USA hit TV series ‘Motive.’ Also on the small screen, Jaime was cast in NBC’s pilot ‘Imaginary Mary’. With a charm that undeniably shines on screen, he has made strides in his acting career in just a few short years. Jaime’s other recent roles include playing Luther in the New York Time’s best selling novel, Hallmark’s popular ‘The Bridge, Part 1 & 2’, and ‘Love at First Bark’. Other roles include: ‘The Big Time Movie’, ‘The Secret Circle’, and the Superman movie, ‘Man of Steel’.
In the world of film, Jaime’s first leading feature film role sees him playing Randall, a nerd who wants nothing more than to fit in with the guys who tease him, in the comedy feature ‘The Perfect Pickup’. He goes along with the perfect pickup in the hopes that it will finally get him a girl and the acceptance of his school friends, who have never truly treated him as a friend. He also plays Officer Bebe in the feature film ‘Power Rangers.’
Jaime is the face of Best Buy Canada for 2017 and is the top brand ambassador for Samsung in Canada. Jaime was born in Toronto and grew up in Markham, Ontario, to parents of mixed Trinidadian, Chinese and Spanish ancestry, before moving to the West Coast where he currently splits time between Maple Ridge, British Columbia and Los Angeles. His training began with renowned acting coach Andrew McIlroy. He has also trained extensively with Bradley Stryker and Matthew Harrison at the Actors Foundry, Larry Moss, and continues to train with Jeb Beach in Vancouver B.C. Jaime’s goal is to continue doing what he feels that he has been blessed to do… entertain.
