- Mehmet Can Aksoy was born on April 19, 1996 in Chicago, Illinois, USA. He is an actor and editor, known for Wildcat (2023), Power Book IV: Force (2022) and Chicago Med (2015).
- Originally, Mehmet was only booked for one role on Power Book IV: Force. But after the first day of shooting, show-runner Robert Munic and director of S1EP4 Kieron Hawke agreed they wanted more for the up-and-coming actor, so they created a twin brother for the character of Aleksander named Vlado, who appeared in two more episodes of Season 1, Episodes 8 & 9.
- Years before shooting his Jesus scene with Laura Linney in "Wildcat" (starring Maya Hawke, directed by Ethan Hawke), Mehmet worked with director and cinematographer Mykhailo Bogdanov for a class project at DePaul University in Chicago, for which they recreated a scene from "Training Day" with Mehmet playing Ethan Hawke's character, Officer Jake Hoyt. A few months later, Mykhailo develops an idea for a short film, "Avoesis", for which he casts Mehmet to play Jesus, two years prior to Ethan Hawke casting Mehmet as his Jesus for "Wildcat".
- Is a Turkish-American actor hailing from Chicago.
