Johnny Come Lately

Maybe I'll just sit here and bleed at you.

About Me

I'm from Kansas. I moved to LA. I moved back to Kansas. I'm trying to get back to LA. I like film. I act. I produce. I don't sing or dance. I read comic books. I have hundreds of super hero toys. I've studied mixed martial arts for nearly a decade. I enjoy staring into space. I want to do, see, feel, and learn as much as possible before I leave this world.

The Movie...

In September Tornado Alley Entertainment and American Talkie Productions, LLC wrapped production on the feature film "COMMON", a dramatic comedy written by Jordan Gray, Directed by Jeremy Fiest, featuring Jordan Gray and John Robert Johnson. Post Production is expected to be completed early spring.

The Company...

My Interests

Movies, music, comic books, martial arts, camping, the outdoors. I also have interests in history, science and a politics, and the paranormal. For years, I've wanted to fence, scuba dive, sail, and surf, but have yet to attempt any of the formentioned.

I'd like to meet:



Anyone who thinks outside the confines of their own existence. Anybody who can inspire me and teach me things that help hone my craft or aid in self-realization.
