Benjamin Bratt Half-Peruvian Indian, half-Caucasian, Benjamin Bratt first came to the attention of the female population in 1995 when he joined the cast of Law & Order as sexy Detective Reynaldo 'Rey' Curtis.

He followed that miss with a hit in the 2000 Oscar-winning film Traffic, and then teamed with Sandra Bullock in the doubtful Miss Congeniality.
