- Before becoming an actor, Lewis was a publisher of environmental science books. He was once offered the job of Head of European Operations for CRC Press, but turned it down, because it did not fit with his family situation.
- Jonny's hobby is languages. He has studied several, both formally and informally--including Swahili, in preparation for a trip to Tanzania, where he taught English in a magnet school in the highlands. He wrote and directed a couple of short films in Spanish while living in Tijuana. Jonny has family in Japan, and plans to shoot a short and a feature (both comedies) in Japan in 2021. As part of his long-range career goals, he hopes one day to shoot feature films in France and China.
