Jamey Sheridan
Jamey Sheridan has a quietly commanding presence that makes even smaller roles linger in the memory. You might recognize him as the menacing Ace Merrill in Rob Reiner’s Stand by Me, where his portrayal of a local bully added a palpable tension to this coming-of-age story.

His work often feels grounded, steering clear of clichés with subtle shifts in expression and voice.

Watching his performances, it’s clear why even small roles by Jamey Sheridan feel essential.
