Jasper Jones

Jasper Jones is an American actor who moved into the spotlight in 2026 with his breakout role as Keno in Neagley, Prime Video's first spin-off from the hit series Reacher. Released on September 16, 2026, the action-crime thriller follows Frances Neagley — played by Maria Sten, who first brought the character to the screen in Reacher — as she sets out to uncover the truth after an old friend dies in a suspicious accident. Alan Ritchson appears as Jack Reacher, tying the spin-off directly back to its parent show and to the wider universe adapted from Lee Child's best-selling novels.

As Keno, Jones plays a man shadowed by a criminal past and by the assumptions people make about him before he ever speaks. Around the show's launch he described the role as someone quietly determined to prove those assumptions wrong — a drive he framed as largely internalised, part of Keno's private inner dialogue rather than something he announces to the world. Beneath that resolve, he has said, sits a genuine vulnerability about the basics of stability and security, which becomes one of the things Keno least wants Neagley to uncover.

The part places Jones inside a tight ensemble of new and returning faces. Alongside Sten and Ritchson, the Neagley cast includes Greyston Holt as Detective Hudson Riley, Adeline Rudolph as Renee Birdwhistle, Matthew Del Negro as Pierce Woodrow and Damon Herriman as Lawrence Cole. Introduced as one of the fresh additions when the spin-off's cast was confirmed in September 2026, and with the full season arriving together on its premiere date, Jones quickly drew attention from viewers following the Reacher universe.

An emerging talent whose public profile has grown rapidly on the strength of Neagley, Jasper Jones is still early in a career that the series has pushed firmly into view. This profile will be expanded as further verified details about his work and background become available.

How old is Jasper Jones?

Jasper Jones's date of birth has not been officially confirmed. Unlike most working actors, he has no verified public birth record, and neither Wikipedia nor Wikidata currently lists a birth date for the Neagley star. Estimates that circulate online place him at roughly 29 years old as of 2026 — which would suggest a birth year around 1996 or 1997 — but those figures are unverified, differ from source to source, and should be treated as guesswork rather than fact.

Some of the confusion comes from a name overlap. The 2017 Australian film Jasper Jones starred actor Aaron L. McGrath (born 1996) in the title role; he is a different person entirely and is often mixed up with the actor who plays Keno in Neagley. For that reason we deliberately don't publish a single “confirmed” age here — turning an unverified online estimate into a stated fact would only mislead readers.
