Diamantopoulos grew up splitting his time between Canada and Greece. He is of Greek descent, a practicing member of the Greek Orthodox church, and a fluent Greek speaker.[2][3]
He met Becki Newton at a subway station in New York City. They married in 2005.[4] Newton gave birth to their first child, a boy, in November 2010.[5] In 2014, they had a girl.[6] Six years later, they had another girl.[7]
In 2021, Diamantopoulos bought Craig Ferguson's house in Bronson Canyon in Los Angeles.[8]
Diamantopoulos worked on television commercials and professional theatre productions at the age of nine. By the time he turned eighteen, he left home to partake in a series of American national tours.[9] A short time later, he worked on Broadway, where he played leading parts in The Full Monty (2002) and Les Misérables (2003).[10] Diamantopoulos attended East York Collegiate Institute.
He played Robin Williams in Behind the Camera: The Unauthorized Story of Mork & Mindy alongside Erinn Hayes. He has guest-starred in several series, including Kevin Hill, Charmed, The Sopranos, Nip/Tuck and Boston Legal. He played the interior decorator in the miniseries The Starter Wife.
He had a recurring role on State of Mind and guest-voiced on American Dad! in 2009.
On the eighth season of 24, he played U.S. president Allison Taylor's Chief of Staff Rob Weiss. He played Frank Sinatra in The Kennedys. Diamantopoulos played Moe Howard in the 2012 film The Three Stooges.
Since 2013, Diamantopoulos voiced Mickey Mouse, as well as the Vampire and a Mummy in Mickey Mouse, and its follow-up series The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse, in which he also voiced a laughing fish and a weasel. Although Bret Iwan has voiced Mickey in most media after Wayne Allwine, Diamantopoulos voices the character in retro-styled productions, giving Mickey Mouse a voice similar to that of Walt Disney.
He had recurring roles on the NBC sitcoms Up All Night, as Maya Rudolph's on and off lover, Julian; The Office, as Brian, a former member of the show's documentary film crew (alongside Zach Woods), and on Arrested Development, as Marky, Lindsay's face-blind environmentalist boyfriend.
He appeared in the television sitcom Episodes playing the part of TV network boss Castor Sotto, and Mr. Chris in the television adaptation of About a Boy.
In 2017, Diamantopoulos starred in the musical Waitress on Broadway.
On October 11, 2018, it was revealed by TVLine that he would have a role in the spin-off pilot for the situation comedy The Middle playing Sue Heck's mercurial, charming and rich boss Nick.[11]
Diamantopoulos voiced Frank Heffley in the 2021 animated film Diary of a Wimpy Kid, released on Disney+.[12]
