Jake McLaughlin

After leaving the military, Jake McLaughlin worked on a crab boat in Oregon and as a security guard at Universal Studios. He was living in Chico, California, doing concrete work and had only $200 in his checking account when he heard about the casting session for Paul Haggis's, In the Valley of Elah (2007). Being a former dismount infantry S.A.W. gunner in Iraq in real life, he thought he would read for the role after hearing that Haggis was auditioning actual vets for several parts.

After the success of his first movie, McLaughlin made cameo appearances in movies such as The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008) and Cloverfield (2008). In the following years he made many appearances on television. In 2011, he was cast in Warrior, which was followed by a supporting role in Safe House (2012).
