Leonardo is currently reprising his fan-favorite role as Felix Lutz for season three of the critically acclaimed, award-winning HBO series "Westworld." The series, based off the 1973 Michael Crichton movie of the same name, takes place in Westworld, a futuristic amusement park intended for rich vacationers and looked after by robotic "hosts." Leonardo is a scene-stealer as a lab technician who remains by Maeve Millay's (Thandie Newton) side as they navigate the treacherous landscapes of Westworld, and beyond. Since the show's breakout debut in 2016, the series has garnered over 150 award nominations, 47 wins and counting.

. In addition to "Westworld," Leonardo is set to recur throughout season 4 of CBS' hit action-drama series "MacGyver," starring as Aubrey, the newly introduced love interest of Riley (Tristin Mays). "MacGyver" is currently airing new episodes on CBS. Leonardo can also be seen in the fourth season of HBO's fantasy-dramedy anthology series "Room 104," created by the Duplass brothers. Leonardo's episode will center on a bittersweet reunion of a friendship following a deep family loss, painting a funny, poignant and retro tale of love, friendship and moving on. "Room 104" will return for season 4 in 2020.

On the film front, Leonardo stars in a leading role in the upcoming indie drama "Phobias," which premiered at the Mammoth Film Festival in February 2020. Set in an alternate, contemporary world, the film explores human instinct and the real phobias that everyday people must live with. The film is comprised by six short anthology pieces, which are woven together through the lens of Johnny (Nam), who is fighting his robophobia to avenge his father's wrongful death. In addition to "Phobias," Leonardo is also set to star in the indie comedy "Marvelous and the Black Hole," premiering at the TriBeCa Film Festival in April 2020.

Recent notable credits for Leonardo include the DC Universe series "Swamp Thing," Amazon's "Sneaky Pete," and the Arthouse film "Hummingbird." He has also recurred on titles such as the Amazon series "Betas," and has appeared on "The Flash," Disjointed," "Hawaii 5-0," "Royal Pains," "Bones," "Franklin & Bash," and "Stalker." His breakout role came in the Paramount Pictures comedy "The Perfect Score," starring Scarlett Johansson, Chris Evans, and Erika Christensen. Since then, he has gone on to star in a string of movies, namely "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" 1 and 2, "The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift," "Vantage Point," "He's Just Not That Into You," and "One for the Money."

Born in Argentina to Korean immigrant parents and raised in Sydney, Australia, Leonardo has since relocated to San Diego, CA, where he enjoys spending quality time with his husband and their twin toddlers when he has time off set.
