About Will
Will Holbrook is an actor and filmmaker. He opted not to attend any schooling after high school, choosing to seize every moment he could and work his way up the business ladder with passion and hard work. Interested with visual storytelling his entire life, he decided as a toddler he was meant to act. He visited sets of his Grandfather's (Hal Holbrook) growing up, and first worked on a set as a PA at 16. He waited to begin his career until he graduated high school, and five days later he drove to LA with two suitcases to begin the rest of his life. He rapidly made his first appearance on camera, first leads in short films, first lead in a feature film, first on location shoots around the country, and first professional stage lead (as Algernon in The Importance of Being Earnest), and was cast in his first SAG-AFTRA feature film, all leading up to his signing with Esprit Talent Agency in May of 2016. Will had his first lead role in a feature film, The Gunman at 18. He was cast in his first SAG-AFTRA feature film also when he was 18, The Clinch Mountain Tracker. He was born in Bronx, New York, and grew up mostly in Bloomsbury, New Jersey. He currently studies at Ivana Chubbuck Studio and is always preparing for shoots and auditions. In February and March 2017 he will take the stage at Archway Theatre in North Hollywood as Romeo in a period production of Romeo and Juliet.
