**Jeff Fahey** is an American actor and the star of the [Tyrell Vanto](https://www.kiripedia.org/wiki/tyrell-vanto)-written and -directed film in which [John Kiriakou](https://www.kiripedia.org/wiki/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]
