Jason Dohring

Biography: This attractive Californian already had a decade of TV roles under his belt when he landed his signature Veronica Mars role as the title character's on-again, off-again sarcastic squeeze. Although his first manager was initially more interested in his four siblings — two sets of identical twins — Dohring quickly became the most successful of the clan, racking up guest spots on myriad series (Judging Amy, Picket Fences, Roswell) and appearing in TV-movies. A second-generation member of the Church of Scientology, Dohring became a name in 2004 when he signed on to the then WB's cult teen-detective show.
