His most prominent work is seen in one of the episodes of 'Justice League Unlimited' where he is cast as Captain Marvel. In 2021, he announced that he will be hosting the CBS 'The Host' and 'The Real Love Boat'.

Back then, she advertised for big brands like Escada, Christian Dior, La Perla, Furla, Tommy Hilfiger, Maybelline, and many others. Moving to the film industry, the star is famously known for her role in 'Mystique' and 'X-Men' series films. In 2007, Rebecca switched as a regular cast member in 'Ugly Betty'. Rebecca also voiced for DC Universe animated movies. Moreover, the actress was also seen 'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds'. Now, she is stepping into the reality world with her husband.

Jerry and Rebecca met each other at a Maxim 100 party in Las Vegas. "We had a couple dates in Las Vegas and then I flew home and I needed a ride home from the airport. And I called Jerry and he drove me home and basically never left," Rebecca said, according to People.

Jerry and Rebecca have been happily married for 15 years. In the recently released sneak peek of the show, Jerry claims that he fell in love with Rebecca at first sight. Rebecca further said, "We both decided we wanted to be with each other more than anybody else in the whole world." And, that's the kind of connection the hosts are looking for in the contestant.
