As an actor
Tropes:
- Production Posse: He has worked with Emma Stone, Rachel Weisz, Olivia Colman, Colin Farrell, Willem Dafoe, and Joe Alwyn on multiple projects.
- My Nayme Is: a weird case of this. the common spelling of his name is Giorgos (the Greek version of the name George) but he used a spelling that gives the phonetically correct pronunciation (how you'd say the name in Greek)
