HELLO AND WELCOME
Tall, lean, and rocking that silver fox hair, SEAN GUNNELL enjoys the simple things in life, such as making french roast coffee in the morning, ocean swimming in the afternoon, and a movie at night. He is also someone who absorbs and relishes in the unusual thrills, like designing and building haunted houses, and cliff jumping from 50+ foot heights into lakes. Harmony and balance is Sean's mantra, especially regarding the importance of living passionately and logically, both of which help him forge his career as an actor.
Sean is professionally trained for the screen and stage, and has been based in Los Angeles since 2014. His major principal screen credits have been two feature films that aired on television: Drone Wars (a SyFy International movie that's streaming on such platforms as Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, and Vudu), and Dangerous Medicine (a TV movie currently available on Lifetime Movie Network, Amazon Prime, Apple TV+, and Vudu). He has leading, supporting, and featured credits in four indie feature films to be released in 2021 and 2022, including his first co-starring role in Laugh Now, Cry Later. In 2017, he starred in the short film Collar, which has been officially selected by over 160 film and awards festivals worldwide, and of which Sean has been nominated for 23 Best Actor accolades, proudly winning 13 of them. Recent regional and local theatre credits of principal and featured roles include Private Mason in Ross Valley Players' critically acclaimed Journey's End (Bay Area Theatre Critics Circle winner for Best Ensemble), Patrick Wojtowicz in Pop Up Theatre Inc.'s original immersive production The Gypsy Machine, and Clifford Bradshaw in Simi Valley Cultural Art Center's Cabaret.
Sean trained in San Francisco at both the Academy of Art University (receiving his BFA in Acting under the guidance of the School of Acting's department founder Diane Baker) and The Meisner Technique Studio (learning from Jim Jarrett, Sanford Meisner's last teaching protege). Amongst the skills in his artistic toolkit, he has studied advanced stage acting and Shakespearean performance with Andrew Hurteau, on-camera performance with Eduardo Rufeisen, Waris Hussein, and Todd Patrick Breaugh, Emotional Recall with Melissa Gray, audition technique with Laura Henry, and stage combat with Durand Garcia, rounding Sean out to be as adaptive, seasoned, and prepared for every stage of performance as possible.
Coming off of the heels of his most successful year yet, in August 2021 Sean joined SAG-AFTRA, and secured managerial representation with Torque Entertainment. A few of his other goals for the remainder of the year include representation across the board, guest spots on television shows, and principal roles in union and indie feature films. Strategically, he is about setting intentions he can see through that are realistic to his current career standing, but he never plateaus his vision to settle. Everything that Sean does professionally is about continually climbing up his ladder, staying in his lane, and ascending his artistic Everest, because, at the end of day, being true to himself, and his spark of madness, will forever be the fuels to his fire. Harmony and balance, the keys to Sean's kingdom. Let's play!
