Introducing Bretton Vail

I swear, I had no idea when I cast him that Bretton was in one of my favorite movies growing up. Indeed, Bretton Vail was a part of two of Gregg Araki’s first features, The Long Weekend and The Living End. Araki’s films have often been cited as important works in the queer film world. And now, Bretton is part of The Adults in the Room, having been cast as Mr. Hansen, Andy’s high school English teacher.

Bretton Vail lived in Los Angeles for 15 years, working at Hollywood Post Production facilities The Post Group, and Encore Hollywood.  An accomplished editor and director as well, Vail began his career on the other side of the camera, starring in two of Gregg Araki’s early features and Rupert Nadeau’s  award winning Tracks. Vail has produced and edited two independent feature films and four short films that have played in festivals and won awards nationally and internationally. He also has an extensive history of voiceover work, improvisation and sketch comedy.

He travels extensively for his clients but currently lives and works in Portland, Oregon. The whole cast and crew of The Adults in the Room is thrilled to have the highly accomplished Bretton on our team and can’t wait to see him bring to the screen what made his auditions so exciting.
