While filming for “Dawson’s Creek”, he became interested in a pilot for the show called “Roswell High” which would later become “Roswell”; he was cast in the lead role for the show, which is based on the book series of the same name written by Melinda Metz.

These included “Man of God”, “Happily, Even After”, and “Shooting Livien”, then in 2001 he was cast in the film “The Shipping News” alongside Kevin Spacey and Judi Dench, and then followed a leading role in the Japanese/American film collaboration entitled “The Grudge”, alongside Sarah Michelle Gellar, before working on the pilot for the show “The Way”, however, the show wasn’t picked up by CBS. Following that, he did work around Glasgow for the film “Senseless”, which is based on the book of the same name written by Stona Finch.

He also had a role in the 2007 film entitled “Skinwalkers”, which was marketed as a reinvention of the werewolf story.

He also had a recurring role in the show “Breakout Kings” in 2012, in which he appeared for a total of five episodes.

Personal Life and Social Media

For his personal life, it is known that Behr had a relationship with “Roswell” co-star Katherine Heigl, during their time together on the show, and still maintains a close friendship. While in Japan filming for “The Grudge”, he met KaDee Strickland and the two began their relationship there, and married in 2006. They have three children together, and since starting a family, he has been inactive from acting.

Several sources state that he retired from the profession in 2012, though it has yet to be officially confirmed. She became later known for her role in “Private Practice”.

Jason is a dog lover, owning several dog breeds such as an Akita and a Dalmatian. One of the reasons why there is very limited information about him is due to the lack of any strong online presence – he doesn’t have accounts on any of the major social media websites. There are numerous fan pages dedicated to following his latest endeavors, and many loyal followers of “Roswell” also want the show to have a reunion. However, with his inactivity from acting, it is unlikely that it will happen in the near future.
