Career
Landes' first major role was as Jimmy Olsen in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman in 1993.
Landes was not invited to continue the role of Jimmy Olsen after the first season. The creator of the series explained in the DVD commentary that this was because the producers perceived him to resemble lead actor Dean Cain too much. Justin Whalin took over the role for the remaining three seasons of the program.
He is also known for his roles as Detective Nicholas O'Malley in Special Unit 2, Thomas Burke in Final Destination 2, and David Conlon in The Wedding Bells.
He also appeared as Danny in BBC Television's Miranda as the new chef and Miranda's date for one episode.
