Early life and career
Jacob Leif Stormoen was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, US.[1] to parents of Norwegian descent. Stormoen grew up in Minneapolis along with his younger sister Anna Stormoen.[1] After graduating from high school in the U.S, he enrolled at the University of Southern Queensland in Toowoomba,[2] Queensland, Australia,[1] where he obtained a Bsc Arts in Creative Media.[1] After being a waiter for 6 months, he returned to the United States, to Los Angeles, California to pursue a career in acting.[3] Stormoen is friends with Kristian Nairn, the actor who plays Hodor in Game of Thrones,[4] the friendship developed online whilst in High school, playing World of Warcraft (WoW).[4] Stormoen later co-starred with Nairn in the Kurt Knight horror thriller film The Appearance in 2018.[5] In 2015, Stormoen won the 'Best Supporting Actor' award at the Utah Film Festival for his performance as Airk in the fantasy film The Christmas Dragon.[6] Apart from acting, he has also worked as a writer and associate producer in a couple of short films.[1]
In 2014, Stormoen landed his first major role as Dagen in the Arrowstorm fantasy-adventure drama film Mythica: A Quest for Heroes,[7] a franchise where he starred in 4 more films, Mythica: The Necromancer and Mythica: The Darkspore in 2015,[7] then Mythica: The Godslayer and Mythica: The Iron Crown in 2016.[1] Stormoen's inherent love for and being a life-long fan of fantasy and science fiction, is the main reason why he enjoys working for the Utah-based production company, Arrowstorm Entertainment, because they specialise in that genre.[8]
In 2018, Stormoen continued his success with Arrowstorm Entertainment in a lead role as Captain Garret Spears in The CW's fantasy-adventure drama television series The Outpost, alongside Jessica Green and Anand Desai-Barochia.[9][10] The CW announced that series 3 of The Outpost will be extended by a further 13 episodes in 2020.[11] In 2023, he directed Mythica: Stormbound, the sixth film in the Mythica_(film_series).
