No, Jake was not the kid in Star Wars Episode 1. That kid is 6 years younger than Jake. When the movie was being shot Jake was 16. Did Anakin look 16?! That kid’s name isn’t even Jake, it's Jacob. How lame is that?!*

Born March 15th 1983, Jake Lloyd was raised on Long Island, New York. When he was a little kid he used to perform Derringer's "Real American" for an invisible audience in his living room. Jake became infatuated with entertainment as a child due to "The Dick Van Dyke Show," the work of Don Knotts (he REALLY wanted to be a cartoon fish) and Michelangelo from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Those roots grew into a passion for film, comics, video games, and all around geek culture.

He now resides in Hollywood CA where he is a full time stereotype. A stand-up comedian, writer, director, actor, editor, musician, and artist, Jake clearly suffers from some form of mental illness and attention issues.

Jake has hosted for the Improv Comedy chain and appeared at various comedy clubs opening for acts like Tom Wilson, Ralph Harris, Brian Posehn, and Daniel Tosh to name a few.
