Biography

A New York-based actor originally from Philadelphia, Brian Rock found his way to television and film later in life - and has spent the past five years building impressive momentum. After getting his start performing in high school and with local theater groups, his journey took him into the corporate world before eventually bringing him to the screen and, most recently, full circle as he returned home to make his critically acclaimed professional Philadelphia theater debut in Conor McPherson's The Weir.

His credits include a recurring role as Wyatt across multiple seasons of Apple TV+'s Severance, guest-starring roles on Law & Order: SVU, FBI, and The Blacklist, as well as an appearance in Mare of Easttown. Next up, Brian can be seen in a major streamer for Disney+ (sorry, kids. He signed an NDA).

On screen, Brian brings a compelling mix of strength, intelligence, and unexpected heart. His wheelhouse ranges from blue-collar dads, tough guys, informants, and small-town investigators to lawyers, politicians, and men in power. He's the guy who probably won't start the trouble, but will definitely finish it. Underneath the toughness is an intelligence that often makes audiences feel like he's the smartest person in the room. His presence lives in the world of Michael Cudlitz, Stephen Root, and Shea Whigham - grounded, specific formidable, and deeply human.

Brian has trained extensively with Matt Newton in New York and Drama, Inc in Atlanta, with private coaching from Michael Kostroff, Michael Reilly Burke, George Gallagher, and Tony Robinette.
