Spending the past few years starring in television series, Skeet Ulrich is said to be returning to the big screen. According to Hollywood Reporter, the 'Jake Green' actor in CBS's drama "Jericho" has been cast in Screen Gems' new project "Armored".

Prior to his appearance in the TV series that is resurrected from cancellation due to a fan campaign, the American actor has varied credits behind him. He once starred in Jack Nicholson and Helen Hunt's "As Good as It Gets", Tobey Maguire's "Ride With the Devil" and Neve Campbell's "Scream".
