The 26 Years Old Actor Was Born In Juneau, Alaska, Into A Family of Mixed-Race Heritage
A lot of background information is yet to be learned about the A Week Away actor. Nonetheless, reports have it that he was born in the capital city of the state of Alaska, Juneau, and we can confirm that his date of birth was on the 7th of August 1998.
Jahbril Cook was born to Lolita Flores Cook and her husband who is just known as Mr. Cook at the moment. While much isn’t known about his parents, it is no secret that the actor is not their only child. Jahbril has at least two siblings: two sisters one of whom is named Chakra Cook.
Anyone with half an eye could tell that Cook is of African American extraction, but that’s not the complete picture of his heritage. It is said that he hails from a multiracial family and has Asian blood flowing in his veins.
Jahbril Cook Obtained a Degree In Drama & Theatre Arts From Columbia University
The Juneau, Alaska native is a trained actor who obtained a degree in Drama and Theatre Arts from Columbia University, a private Ivy League research university in New York City, New York.
Growing up, Cook was a brilliant student and it saw him attend the Governor’s School of North Carolina, a residential summer program for intellectually gifted high schoolers from the state.
It seems Jahbril knew he wanted to be a performer from an early age as he also attended Weaver Acadamy for Performing and Visual Arts in Greensboro, North Carolina before he moved to New York to further his education in the field.
He Began Acting on Stage and Made His Screen Debut at Age 23
Jahbril Cook has been acting since his teenage years. He began acting on stage before he made his screen debut. Sometime in January 2018, he performed alongside Taylor Alexis Bass and Garrett Gray in the Off-Broadway production of The Snowy Day and Other Stories at St. Luke’s Theatre located at 308 West Forty-Sixth (46) Street in New York.
He was seen in several theatre productions at Barnard College and during his days at Columbia University. Some of his earliest stage performances include Tommy at the Open Space Cafe Theatre in Greensboro, North Carolina, and In the Heights at Weaver Academy also in Greensboro.
His move from stage to the screen came in 2021 at the age of 23 when he landed his role as George in A Week Away. The movie which premiered on Netflix in March 2021 came with a modern rendition of several songs of popular Christian artists. This saw Cook perform soundtracks for the movie: he performed songs like “Good Enough”, “The Great Adventure”, “Let’s Go Make a Memory”, “Baby Baby”, and “Dive” amongst others.

Jahbril Cook Has Never Been Married and Doesn’t Seem to Be Dating Anyone
Jahbril Cook’s character in A Week Away fancied a girl named Presley (Kat Conner Sterling) so much that he made a pact with Will Hawkins (Kevin Quinn) to help him gain the love of Avery (Bailee Madison), a girl Will liked for Will to help him with Presley.
In real life, nonetheless, nothing indicates that the American actor is in any relationship. We can confirm that he is not married and has never been. The same level of certainty can’t be sustained about his relationship status at the moment.
While it is believed that he is not in any relationship, this is simply because nothing indicates he is dating anyone. But then, it is possible that he is in a relationship but has endeavored to keep it away from the public. Given that, it is more accurate to just admit that his relationship status is not known to the public.
What Is The Religion of The Actor?
It is no secret that A Week Away is a Christian film. The musical teen drama film introduced younger moviegoers to songs of several Christian artists like Steven Curtis Chapman, Amy Grant, and Michael W. Smith.
Alongside other cast members of the movie, Jahbril Cook performed a modern rendition of songs of these Christian artists and that’s probably why people started asking questions about his religion.
While it has been assumed in some quarters that he is a Christian, this has not been authenticated as the actor is yet to comment on his religious beliefs.
