Personal life


Jaffe was born in Los Angeles.[1] He is the son of actress Nina Axelrod and film producer Robert Jaffe.[2] His maternal grandfather was screenwriter George Axelrod, while his paternal grandfather was film producer Herb Jaffe. He has two brothers and a sister.[3] Jaffe came out as bisexual in 2017.[4]


Career


Jaffe began his career as a child actor, appearing in films such as Mr. Mom and 2010: The Year We Make Contact. After six years, he did not enjoy being a child actor. After a bad audition, his father told him he could either put in more effort for more roles or quit acting, and Jaffe—having not previously realized that quitting was an option—immediately chose to quit.[5] He returned to a career in entertainment a few years later, being a voice actor for dubbing anime in 2000.[6] Since then, he has taken just two small onscreen roles for House MD and House of Demons.

In Critical Role,[7] he played Percival "Percy" Fredrickstein von Musel Klossowski de Rolo III in Campaign One, Mollymauk Tealeaf, Caduceus Clay and Kingsley Tealeaf in Campaign Two, and Ashton Greymoore in Campaign Three.[8][9] Critical Role was both the Webby Winner and the People's Voice Winner in the "Games (Video Series & Channels)" category at the 2019 Webby Awards;[10] the show was also both a Finalist and the Audience Honor Winner in the "Games" category at the 2019 Shorty Awards.[11] The show was originally broadcast on the Geek & Sundry network until early 2019, when the cast and crew left to set up their own production company, Critical Role Productions.[12][13][14][15] Soon after, they aimed to raise $750,000 on Kickstarter to create an animated series of their first campaign, but ended up raising over $11 million.[16][17] In November 2019, Amazon Prime Video acquired the streaming rights to the animated series The Legend of Vox Machina; Jaffe reprised his role as Percy.[18][19]
