4 | After guest-starring on several television shows like ''Series/NewYorkUndercover'' (1994) and ''Series/LawAndOrder'' (1990), he landed his best-known role as Miguel Alvarez, a morose and violent prisoner struggling for redemption on Creator/{{HBO}}'s notoriously gritty ''Series/{{Oz}}'' (1997). Though he was nominated for a Cable Ace award and an ALMA award for his work on ''Oz'' (1997), it was Acevedo's role as Pvt. Tella in ''Film/TheThinRedLine'' (1998) that won him an ALMA. |
