J.R. Ramirez is slowly making a name for himself as an actor. Born in Cuba and raised in Florida, USA, his first role on television was as Diego Hernandez on the TBS series Tyler Perry’s House of Payne. After this, he starred as Eddie Jr. in Hacienda Heights. Soon after, he made his feature film debut in I Will Follow. He next appeared in the independent film The Coalition and guest-starred in GCB and 90210.

After a recurring part in Emily Owens M.D., Ramirez gained recognition for his role as Julio in Power, a role he played between 2014 and 2017.
