Meet Jonesy—an adorable acting cat with serious screen presence—who stars in the hit series Wild Cards alongside Vanessa Morgan (Riverdale) and Giacomo Gianniotti (Grey’s Anatomy). When the show lands on Amazon Prime Video in January, keep an eye out for Jonesy as “Marc,” because this cool cat has a habit of stealing every scene he’s in.
With striking good looks, effortless charm, and an air of quiet confidence, Jonesy may just be television’s most underestimated star.
WILD CARDS is a blue sky procedural that follows the odd-couple dynamic of a by-the-book, sarcastic detective and a witty con woman who, despite their differences, must work together to solve cases and navigate their newfound partnership.
Note: For those of you unfamiliar with ‘TV lingo’, … a “blue sky procedural” is a style of crime or mystery television that favors a light, upbeat tone and strong, character-driven storytelling over gritty realism or dark, heavy themes. Popularized by networks like USA Network with shows such as Monk and Suits, the genre leans into witty banter, fun premises, and unconstrained, “blue sky” ideas to deliver engaging—often quirky—stories that are as entertaining as they are clever.
Already boasting credits that include Gabby’s Dollhouse: The Movie, Jonesy is proving that some of the biggest personalities on screen come with four paws and a perfectly timed stare.
