Angus Turner Jones[2] (born October 8, 1993) is an American actor. After making his film debut in Simpatico (1999), he followed with a starring role in See Spot Run (2001) and supporting roles in The Rookie (2002) and Bringing Down the House (2003).
Jones gained mainstream recognition with his lead role as Jake Harper on the CBS sitcom Two and a Half Men (2003–2013), for which he won two Young Artist Awards and a TV Land Award.
In November 2012, Jones openly criticized Two and a Half Men, which led to his character being downgraded to a recurring status for the show's eleventh season. He officially left the show in March 2014, although he returned for its finale in February 2015.
