Brett Maline is a Los Angeles based, multi-hyphenate, award-winning disabled actor/writer/director. From small town Nebraska, he's niche because he lives with a rare type of scoliosis and drives a crappy PT Cruiser.
Just off performing in the 2024 CBS Paramount Showcase, he was also named to the 2023 Inevitable Foundation Elevate Collective Cohort where he received a grant and executive mentorship to develop his original TV and film scripts. Brett also wrote on the 2nd season of Marvel's Loki while developing his half hour comedy with Sony Pictures Television, supervised by Dayna Lynne North. The show is based on his award winning short film he wrote, directed, and starred in. His latest film, MAI, shot in Tokyo and his foreign film directorial debut, releases this year.
With appearances on CBS, NBC, FOX, Amazon Prime, and Disney, Brett is a former cast member of the Groundlings Sunday Company and a UCB house sketch team veteran. He continues to write, direct, and produce videos for his YouTube channel Genuine Jerks that has been featured on the Today Show, Good Morning America, and Vulture.
