Rachel Bloom and Santino Fontana in "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" |
Santino Fontana has his hands full
Santino Fontana, a
2000 Donna Reed Festival acting scholarship finalist, currently has
two shows airing on television. He is playing a sarcastic, slightly
bitter bartender in Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, a quirky new CW
comedy/musical featuring Fontana as Greg Serrano, a guy who gets
dragged into the topsy-turvey world of young lawyer Rebecca Bunch
(played by Rachel Bloom), who dropped everything to follow an
ex-boyfriend from New York to West Covina, Calif.
He is also
appearing with Jennifer Lopez in Shades of Blue, an NBC drama
that follows a tight-knit crew of police officers who are effective
at keeping the streets safe but also corrupt when it come to lining
their pockets and protecting their own.
Fontana got his first taste of working for television while on Broadway
in the stage version of Moss Hart's theater memoir, Act One. Lincoln
Center filmed the performance for a PBS special that is set to air in
November.
Fontana's
film credits include Disney's 2013 hit musical film, “Frozen,”
voicing Prince Hans, and the upcoming Tina Fey and Amy Poehler
comedy, The Nest.
