The Adults in the Room

Meet Ryan Findley

Casting the role of Andy was relatively easy. The script is told from that character’s point of view, and the actor has a lot of material to draw from to make that character complex and sympathetic.

But the role Peter is another story. Peter’s motivations remain shrouded, and his very inaccessibility is an integral part of his character. Additionally, there will be audiences who have identified him as a bad guy—a “predator”—before the lights have even gone down. The actor behind the role has to be able to challenge those assumptions in a relatively short amount of screen time.

After two callbacks, it came down to three amazingly talented actors, who took the role in three very different but totally feasible directions. It was not an easy choice, but I believe that we made the right one in Ryan Findley.

When not acting, Ryan keeps himself very busy with his own gutter company, his wife’s store, Red Berry Boutique, one son, one daughter and another daughter on the way. He does not, apparently, sleep.

He is currently in production on the local WWII drama Pathfinders: In The Company Of Strangers. Suffice it to say, Ryan’s role in The Adults In The Room will be a very different one.
