Jesse Johnson


Jesse Johnson is the son of award-winning actor Don Johnson and actress Patti D’Arbanville. He has seven half-siblings, which include his paternal half-sister and Fifty-Shades of Gray star Dakota Johnson. Because he was born into a family of actors, it’s no surprise that he turned out to love the craft as well. In 2001, he had a cameo in an episode of the NBC TV series Nash Bridges and landed the role of young Lt. Benjamin Tyson in the TV film Word of Honor.

For his first film, he starred in the 2007 movie Redline, alongside Nathan Phillips and Eddie Griffin. The film, ranked #11 on the US Box Office chart, is about a five-yearly racing in the distant future. However, his most significant role yet was in the 2013 TV film, Killing Lincoln, which, to some degree, can be considered his breakout role.
