Biography

Javier "Harvey" Guillén (Latin American Spanish:[xaˈβjeɾ ˈxaɾβi ɣiˈʝen]; born May 3, 1990) is an American actor. He is best known for his role as the human familiar Guillermo de la Cruz in the television series What We Do in the Shadows.

Guillén is the son of Mexican immigrants. He adopted the name Harvey when school teachers could not pronounce his first name. Guillén attended Citrus College, completing the three-year Citrus Singers program in 2005. His father, who was the first person who encouraged him to pursue acting, died of lung cancer in 2017.

Guillén speaks Spanish, English, and Japanese—the last acquired during a 13-month visit to Japan. He identifies as queer.

Guillén has appeared in recurring roles on television series such as Alistair Delgado on Huge (2010), Cousin Blobbin on The Thundermans (2013–2018), George Reyes in Eye Candy (2015), and Benedict Fenwick on The Magicians(2017–2018). He also appeared in the 2013 film The Internship.

Guillén has received considerable acclaim for his role as Guillermo. TheWrap included Guillén in a list of "2019 Emmy Contenders". Hank Steuver, in his review of What We Do in the Shadows in The Chicago Tribune, stated that Guillén "provides at least half the big laughs" in the show.
