Carlos Vega

Carlos Vega is a Mexican-American actor and model in television, film, and theatre. Growing up just outside of Chicago, Carlos has always had an affinity for sports, music, and the arts. After studying The Harold at the original i.O. Theater, Carlos turned his love of performing into a chance audition on "American Idol."

Making his television debut, Carlos continued to hone his craft while gaining invaluable experience with background gigs on "The Dark Knight," "Boss," and "The Playboy Club." Those formidable experiences led to an opportunity to stand-in and photo double on the first three seasons of "Chicago Fire," as well as the Netflix original series "Sense8." In 2016, Carlos also appeared as a flash mob dancer in an episode of "Empire."

Most recently, he's performed original works at Electric Lodge as a part of the long running showcase "MAX10." He is also featured in the music video for Trevor Daniel & Julia Michaels' "Fingers Crossed."
