Rob Mello

Biography

Rob Mello is an American actor who got his start in film through an unusual route, answering a Craigslist ad for an extra in 2012 and impressing director Palomino enough to land the lead in the SAG short Dickie-Bird. Born in Boston, Massachusetts, and raised mostly in and around Everett, Massachusetts, he later trained at Performer's Studio Workshop in Tampa, Florida, studying the Eric Morris process under Kathy Laughlin. His first major role came as Ted Cole in the Nicholas Sparks adaptation The Best of Me (2014), after which he became best known for playing John Tombs in Happy Death Day (2017) and its sequel Happy Death Day 2U (2019). He also appeared in Badass 3 (2015) with Danny Trejo and Danny Glover, Magnificent Seven (2016), Heart, Baby! (2017), and Into the Ashes (2019) opposite Frank Grillo. He received a best villain nomination at the Act Film Challenge and is a member of SAG/AFTRA.
