About me


The driven and self taught actor, Jean-Romy Manzila is a one to watch in Europe. As he continues to build his mark in Europe (Belgium, Netherlands and France), he is determined to explore other parts of the acting world!

Burst onto the stage through a sitcom presenting comical muscles at a young age.Years later, getting to know the work and the industry, he is much more diverse by delving into the works of Shakespeare, David Mamet and his favorite August Wilson. True legends that gave the young actor a lifeline battling a dark past.

These events made him more determined as an actor and made him grow as an aspiring screenwriter, eager to tell stories for kids like him. 

Last year J-R knew great success with a box office hit in “Rewind” a feature film where he played one of the leads.
Hopefully more of this, 2023 he plays in a new TV show Comedy-Mockumentary. This year, Manzila is trying to control the story of his promising career, to be a true servant of the arts, to continue to develop his skills and to develop new ones.

Learning has always been the goal, from you, others, strangers, students, legends.
