Jeff Fahey is an American actor and the star of the Tyrell Vanto-written and -directed film in which John Kiriakou made his acting debut, filmed in Mexico during October 2025.[1]
Kiriakou describes Fahey as “a really great guy, very generous with his time and his advice” and credits him with off-camera coaching that allowed Kiriakou — a first-time actor — to remain on-screen credibly: “He would stand just off camera and whisper directions to me and it made me, I guess, believable enough that I didn’t make an ass of myself in this movie.”[1]
