About Jaan

Accomplished lyricist, scriptwriter, model, actor and producer Jaan Marion is quickly making his move across the country. Having worked with such names as Joel P.E King, Fat Joe, Salvatore Rubino, Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart, Marion has been called a “slave to his craft” and one of “the most talented faces to hit the scene in years.” Marion got his start at a young age growing up in Bowling Green, KY, and later moving to St. Louis, MO. The youngest of eight, Marion said he always had a way of entertaining and pleasing the audience.

After many hard times and harsh learning curves, Marion went on to attend Lindenwood University where he earned his Bachelor’s Degree in Science, with a minor in the Theatre and Art. He then went on to work with acting coaches such as, Carrie Houk, Andrea Purnell and Tedd Huff.

With an already impressive resume developing under his name, Marion is more widely known for his roles as Raymond Vincent in JPEK Productions “Real Life,” and Demetrius in “Mid Summer Night’s Dream.” He has also portrayed characters such as Sean in the short film production, “Right Hand Man,” and Brian in the independent film, “The Unknown Factor.” In 2014 Marion would find himself in the leading role, under Director Salvatore Rubino, as the dealer for the latest Fat Joe, French Montana and Rick Ross video “Just Another Day.”

“I’ve always known this is what I wanted to do,” explained Marion. “I want to leave a legacy for when I’m gone for my family, friends and community. I want people to remember me through entertainment and inspiration. I also want to give back to troubled youth because I have been there before. Life has a way of guiding you to where you need to be. Through my failures, I have learned that no matter how hard life gets you have to find a way to keep moving forward to reach your dreams.”
