Tilky Montgomery Jones was born in Charleston, South Carolina and raised in Vero Beach, Florida. At the age of 11 he began acting in equity productions at Riverside Theatre and was the youngest attendee to be accepted into the Broadway Musical Theatre Project of Tampa, co-founded by Ann Reinking. Tilky then moved on to acting in national commercials, and received his SAG card by the age of 13. At 15 his agent presented him with a unique opportunity to join the boy band Take 5, spear headed by Lou Pearlman, the creator of Back Street Boys and N'SYNC. The group produced multiple CDs in collaboration with Diane Warren, DiLite Allenby, Missy Misdemeanor Elliot, and Timberland; music videos in collaboration with Gregory Dark, stage shows as well as other live and recorded performances in collaboration with Wade Robson and Hi-Hat; receiving widespread media attention, various awards, along with multiple "Gold and Platinum Records" in an international market. The group disbanded in 2001. Between 2003 and 2007, he made three appearances on CW television series One Tree Hill. In 2010, it was announced that he would join the television pilot of Single Ladies, and played the role of K.C. in its 2011 season. On January 13, 2011, it was confirmed that Jones would portray Logan Reed on the ABC Family original television series Pretty Little Liars. Jones played Sean Butler, the love interest of Hayden Panettiere's character Juliette Barnes, on the ABC drama series Nashville in the first Season from 2012 to 2013. Most recent career highlights include a 6 episode arc on Apple TV's 'Shrinking', starring Jason Segal and Harrison Ford. In addition, Jones played Officer Oliver on Tyler Perry's 'Straw' (2025) starring Taraji P Henson and Teyana Taylor on Netflix.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
