As an actor, Gonzalez appeared in multiple episodes of the long-running CBS drama series “NCIS.” He has also appeared in films like “XXX: The Return of Xander Cage” and “The Underdoggs.”

He is repped by UTA, SMAC Entertainment, and Jill Fritzo PR.

“The Neighborhood” has typically begun airing new episodes in the fall, but production was impacted on this and virtually all broadcast series by the combined writers’ and actors’ strikes that shutdown Hollywood throughout most of 2023.
