"Mewes is Mewes, as ever, but he went above and beyond this time. He's come a long way as an actor who is very present in the scene. I really impressed upon him that he had to be prepared for this movie. 'There are real actors in this one,' we kept telling him. And he held his own against people like Affleck and Rickman." - Kevin Smith

Jason Mewes is the New Jersey prophet Jay, whose purpose is mysterious, even to himself. Mewes made his acting debut in Kevin Smith's "Clerks," playing a verbose stoner named Jay who is never without his taciturn sidekick, Silent Bob. He went on to reprise the beloved character in "Mallrats" and "Chasing Amy." He also co-starred in the View Askew production "Drawing Flies."

A native of New Jersey himself, Mewes starred in the MTV Network production "Jay and Silent Bob's Video Stash" and has appeared in several music videos and commercials.
