Fez on "That '70s Show"

Wilmer Valderrama portrays Fez, the heavily accented foreign exchange student who hangs out with Eric and the gang on THAT '70s SHOW.

Valderrama is truly living the American dream. He moved to Los Angeles from Venezuela with his family only five years ago, and it still seems like just yesterday that he was a foreign student who barely spoke a word of English.

Fairly new to the entertainment industry, Valderrama made his professional acting debut in a Spanish Pacific Bell commercial. In June 1999, he graduated from Taft High where he was actively involved in the drama department and theater program. He performed in numerous plays, including "Rumors," "And Never Been Kissed" and " The Impossible Years." Valderrama made his feature film debut in "Summer Catch" for Warner Brothers opposite Freddie Prinze Jr., Jessica Biel, and Mathew Lillard.

Valderrama currently lives with his family in a suburb of Los Angeles.
