Jake Bongiovi has yet to prove his acting skills, as of this writing, because he hasn’t actually appeared in a movie or TV show … yet. The aspiring actor was cast in hair band comedy “Rockbottom” in 2023. The film focuses on the short-lived fictional band CougarSnake. The group parted ways early on in their career due to creative differences, but their popularity surges after a new-generation musician mentions them in an interview. Jesse (Tom Everett Scott), who was once the band’s bass player, is pressured by his daughter and her friend (respectively, McKaley Miller and Teala Dunn) to reassemble the band. Bongiovi takes on the role of Justin, who is CougarSnake’s new lead singer.
Bongiovi was also cast as Kellan in the romantic comedy “Sweethearts” in 2022. He stars alongside Kiernan Shipka and Nico Hiraga. This flick follows two college students who plan to dump their high school sweethearts prior to Thanksgiving.

“At this point in my budding career, when I look at a script and read a script, I read everything as that person’s way of telling their story,” Bongiovi explained to Man About Town. “And if that’s the high school jock or the shell-shocked marine, I always find that that expression is really what brings those characters to life.” Of taking on the film industry, he noted, “Going out on these auditions and having the grit and the mindset to keep going, keep putting myself out there, is to try to be a part of that world.”
