!!Tropes about his filmography:

* PromotedFanboy: He was a big fan of both ''Series/TheOfficeUK'' and ''Series/TheOfficeUS'' before joining the cast of the latter.
* {{Typecasting}}: As [[https://www.buzzfeed.com/tatianatenreyrowhitlock/jake-lacy-is-the-ultimate-dream-boyfriend-and-i-love-him many]] [[https://www.bustle.com/entertainment/record-shopping-with-jake-lacy-from-high-fidelity-22598127 online]] [[https://www.gq.com/story/jake-lacy-backup-boyfriend pieces]] have pointed out, Lacy tends to play friendly, reliable guy types. As Bustle puts it:
-->Lacy's character in [''Series/HighFidelity''] [...]bears the hallmark of a signature Lacy character: the nice guy. The Vermont-born actor is at his most charming as the dependable foil to a messy, larger-than-life woman in projects like ''Film/ObviousChild'', ''Series/{{Girls}}'', and ''Film/HowToBeSingle''; in ''High Fidelity'', he’s the responsible (if a little square) guy who isn’t exactly what music snob Rob wants, but could be what she needs.
