Chosen Jacobs is an American actor and singer, widely recognized for his portrayal of Will Grover on the CBS series Hawaii Five-0 and his role as Mike Hanlon in the film adaptation of Stephen King's It and its sequel, It Chapter Two. Born in Springfield, Massachusetts, Jacobs moved to Atlanta at a young age. His unique name stemmed from a childhood incident when his father overheard a baby saying something that resembled "chosen."

His acting debut came in a Hot Wheels commercial, and he later relocated to Hollywood in pursuit of his dual passions.
