    Personal life

    London was born in San Diego, the son of Deborah "Debbie" London (née Osborn), a waitress, and Frank London, a sheet metal worker.[1] He was raised in Wanette, Oklahoma, and in DeSoto, Texas. His identical twin brother Jeremy is also an actor. In 2003, the two acted together in an episode of 7th Heaven titled "Smoking". Jeremy was Jason's stunt double in The Man in the Moon (1991).

    London married actress Charlie Spradling in 1997. The couple had a daughter. They divorced in 2006.

    In November 2010, London became engaged to actress Sofia Karstens. They married on July 16, 2011 at the home of his wife's parents, William and Judith Karstens, in North Hero, Vermont.[2]

    Career

    London began his career in his junior year of high school. His brother, Jeremy, wanted to audition for the movie The Man in the Moon (1991). London gave his brother a ride to the audition and tried for the part as well. He resulted in getting the part and his brother was his stunt double.[3]

    London later received what would become his most popular role as Randall “Pink” Floyd in the movie Dazed and Confused (1993).

    London has enjoyed success starring mostly as a rebellious, edgy young addict in feature films such as Broken Vessels (1998) and $pent (2000). He starred as Jason in the NBC miniseries Jason and the Argonauts (2000). He also starred in Poor White Trash (2000) playing sleazy ladies' man Brian Ross.

    London portrayed Mark, the local newspaper editor, in the Hallmark Channel television movie, The Wishing Well (2010), which also starred Jordan Ladd and Ernest Borgnine.
