Jonas Jean Bloquet (born 10 July 1992) is a Belgian actor and film director. He made his film debut at the age of 15 in the drama Private Lessons (2008), which earned him a Magritte Award nomination for Most Promising Actor. He has starred in Belgian, French, and American films and is known for his roles such as Vincent Leblanc in the psychological thriller Elle (2016), for which he was nominated for a César Award for Most Promising Actor, and Maurice "Frenchie" Theriault in the horror film The Nun (2018) and its sequel The Nun II (2023). In 2025, he won the Magritte Award for Best Supporting Actor for Night Call (2024). On television, he has starred in the mystery-science fiction series 1899 (2022), and portrayed Joseph II, Holy Roman Emperor in the historical drama series Marie Antoinette (2023).

Bloquet was born in Brussels, Belgium on 10 July 1992. His father was a tennis teacher and his mother was a civil servant at the European Commission. He has a brother.

Bloquet started playing tennis as a child, having his father as his teacher. He wanted to be an engineer until his mother encouraged him to audition for the film Private Lessons after seeing an ad looking for a teenager who knew how to play tennis. Coincidentally, Bloquet's father had been a tennis teacher for the director, Joachim Lafosse, years before. His mother died of cancer eight months after the film's release.

Bloquet speaks French, Dutch and English.

He moved to Paris in 2010, where he studied acting at the Eva Saint-Paul Theatre School for three years. He then studied filmmaking at Luc Besson's Ecole de la Cité.

In 2008, Bloquet made his film debut at the age of 15 as a young tennis player in the Belgian drama Private Lessons, directed by Joachim Lafosse, which earned him a Magritte Award nomination for Most Promising Actor.

In 2013, he had a small role in Luc Besson's black comedy film The Family, his first English-language film, and appeared in Guillaume Brac's drama Tonnerre. In 2014, he appeared in McG's action thriller 3 Days to Kill.

Between 2015 and 2016, Bloquet directed four short films; Conte sur moi, Max, Je suis un troc, and Le Comble du bourreau.

In 2016, he played Vincent Leblanc, the son of Isabelle Huppert's character in the French-German psychological thriller Elle, directed by Paul Verhoeven, for which Bloquet was nominated for a César Award for Most Promising Actor. That same year, he also had a role in Arnaud des Pallières's drama Orphan. In 2017, he played K-Tron Warrior in Luc Besson's space opera film Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets.

In 2018, Bloquet played French-Canadian farmer Maurice "Frenchie" Theriault in the American horror film The Nun by Corin Hardy, a role he reprised in the sequel, The Nun II, directed by Michael Chaves and released in 2023.

In 2021, he portrayed French military officer Jules Brunet in the Japanese film Baragaki: Unbroken Samurai, directed by Masato Harada.

In 2022, he played Lieutenant Chambreau in the French-Senegalese war drama Father & Soldier, directed by Mathieu Vadepied, which premiered at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival. He also starred in the Netflix mystery-science fiction series 1899. In 2023, he portrayed Joseph II, Holy Roman Emperor in the French historical drama television series Marie Antoinette, broadcast by Canal+.

In 2024, he starred in Michiel Blanchart's feature debut, the action thriller Night Call, for which he won the 2025 Magritte Award for Best Supporting Actor.

His upcoming projects include David Hourrègue's aquatic science-fiction series Rivages.

Since 2015, Bloquet has been in a relationship with actress Claire Boyé, with whom he co-directed and co-starred in the 2015 short film Conte sur moi. The couple's first child, a son, was born in July 2023. They live in Paris.
