Early life
Costas Theodosopoulos was born on 3 September 1965 in Melbourne, Australia to Greek immigrants Louise Theodosopoulos, and Yannis Theodosopoulos, a taxi driver.[1][2][3] His brother is actor Louis Mandylor.[2] Mandylor grew up in St Kilda and South Melbourne,[4] and moved to the United States in 1987 where he started taking acting lessons.[1] He was initially unable to find any work acting and had to work any job available.[5] He took a version of his mother's maiden name, citing his real name in Greek being too long.[5]
Career
Mandylor's first major role was in the 1989 film Triumph of the Spirit playing a European Jew, which was filmed at the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp. He returned to Los Angeles meeting director Oliver Stone and auditioned and got the role of an Italian count in The Doors (1991).[5] Mandylor landed a leading role in Mobsters playing Mafia boss Frank Costello. He went mentally prepared for the role, telling the Los Angeles Times, "It was interesting that I got that part, because I felt tuned in to gangsters, it was a genre I'd read a lot. When I was 13, I got a job as a dishwasher in a Melbourne nightclub and saw everything there, real gangsters, and had met characters who were dangerous people from an underground world."[5] In 1992, he had a lead role on the CBS television drama, Picket Fences, playing officer Kenny Lacos until the show ended in 1996. Mandylor also had a lead role in the Saw films as Detective Mark Hoffman, in Saw III (2006), Saw IV (2007), Saw V (2008), Saw VI (2009) and Saw 3D (2010).[6] He also made a cameo appearance in Saw X (2023).
Personal life
Mandylor played professional football/soccer in Europe until suffering shin splints. In 1991, he was chosen by People as one of the "50 Most Beautiful People in the world".[1]
Mandylor married Talisa Soto in May 1997; they divorced in 2000.[7]
