His breakthrough came with Crash (2004), followed by high-profile supporting turns in World Trade Center (2006), Shooter (2007), and Observe and Report (2009). The 2010s solidified his range: action-ensemble casts in Battle: Los Angeles (2011) and Tower Heist (2011), a gritty lead in End of Watch (2012)—which earned him an Independent Spirit Award nomination for Best Supporting Male—and genre work in American Hustle (2013) and Gangster Squad (2013). He carried Cesar Chavez (2014) as the title character, then entered the Marvel universe with Ant-Man (2015) and returned for Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018). Peña has also appeared in The Martian (2015) and Extinction (2018). In prestige TV, he played DEA agent Kiki Camarena in Narcos: Mexico's first season (2018) and CIA operative Domingo Chavez in Jack Ryan season 4 (2023). As a Capricorn, Peña embodies the sign's disciplined, understated approach to craft—rarely the flashy lead, always the actor you trust to ground a scene. Male actors in film and television perform scripted roles across genres, from intimate character studies to broad ensemble productions.
