The Men of 'Silicon Valley'

HBO's freshman comedy just got renewed for a second season. A lot of the actors in the show are those types of guys you've seen before, but you just can't remember from where. Let's take a look at some of the stars of 'Silicon Valley.'

Thomas Middleditch

It looks like actor Thomas Middleditch has found his breakthrough role as entrepreneur Richard on 'Silicon Valley.' If he looks familiar to you it's because he played the guy with the bow tie in last year's very funny 'Wolf of Wall Street.' 

Martin Starr

Martin Starr has made quite the career of playing nerdy guys on screen. You probably know him from 'Freaks and Geeks,' NBC's short-lived show from creators Paul Feig and Judd Apatow. 

                             

                         

Kumail Nanjiani 

Kumail Nanjiani started out as a stand-up comedian before getting acting roles, so it's no surprise that he is hilarious as Dinesh on 'Silicon Valley.' But you might know him from TNT's 'Franklin and Bash.'

T.J. Miller

I've very much enjoyed watching T.J. Miller play the schluppy Erlich on this show. He has quite an extensive list of credits to his name, but I immediately recognized him from his goofy stand-up routine.

Zach Woods

Zach Woods is perfect as the socially awkward Jared on 'Silicon Valley.' You might remember him from 'The Office.' He joined the show in season six as the weird Gabe Lewis.
