“You’re doing so much fun stuff, you don’t have time for a wife!” -Newest addition to the unprompted, backhanded compliment Hall of Fame.

Who among us hasn't accidentally lead their 13 year old goddaughter into Tokyo's red light district while looking for DVDs?

Discovered today that 5am alarms are easier to deal with when a film you worked on is announced as being in competition at Cannes, while getting ready for the day. (Apologies to the sleepy producer who got “full Ryan” at call time.)

And now I’ll be humming I2I on set all week. youtu.be/fLROLskFe5I?...

Much like Richard Kimble, I just snuck out of my River North hotel before getting caught in today’s parade.

Fourteen years playing hockey with these fools. Hope we can do it again soon.

Had a great board game night with some friends last night — much like Pandemic, Secret Hitler hits differently now.

One of the most underrated cultural divides in America is between people who know and care what motion smoothing is and people who still don't. The anti-smoothers went for Kamala by 20 points, minimum.

One of my favorite shoots of 2024 was when producers turned me loose to cover the stadium during Hell Is Real - for episode 2 of ONSIDE: MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER, premiering on Apple TV+ today.

We could just be reading great books, watching good movies, and eating fruit. Instead we have to survive/fight miserable power hoarders. What a waste of limited time.

This afternoon, I drove under the bridge where there was a literal Nazi demonstration a few days ago, 10 minutes away from my house. There were a few positive signs taped to the bridge and one man, by himself, holding a sign that said “love will always win.” May we all be like that guy.

Surprise snow day on ALARUM. Great for production value, less so for ease of working and driving home. Gigantic thanks to Andrew Kunkel, Quinton Jackson and Dan Townsend for this day. And to the angel who pushed my car out of the ditch. 📸: Bryan Houston

I’m very lucky to get to play pretend for a living. And even more so to do it with goofballs like these. The camera team for THE MASTERMIND was incredible and I can’t wait to work with each of them again as soon as possible. (Not pictured: Joe, Woo and Sam, who also rule.)

I’m very thankful to have been a part of THE MASTERMIND’s amazing team.

Wrapping a film is always a little bittersweet—but getting a chance to do my best work of the movie on the last day is quite a way to finish. Can’t wait for this one to get released.

Kicking off my Bluesky with a little shameless promo. My demo reel. Hire me, won’t you? vimeo.com/375009605
