Brendan is a highly accomplished Actor, Producer, Scriptwriter, and published Author with over 15 years of experience in the film industry. His talent, dedication, and commitment to the industry have earned him recognition in various publications, including Variety, Deadline, Buzzfeed, Inside Film, Star Central, Indie Film, Authority Magazine, Thrive Global, and Samera Entertainment, who have likened him to a young Russell Crowe.
Brendan first made a name for himself after the release of his directional debut and highly controversial film "I'm Here Too." Byrne wrote, directed, produced, and acted in the film, which amassed over 13 Million views on YouTube and earned him 23 nominations and 12 wins, solidifying his reputation and influence in the industry.
What truly sets Brendan apart is his impressive versatility as an Actor. He has played the lead in films such as the creature feature "There's Something in the Pilliga," the comedy mockumentary "The Life of Baldrick," and the psychological thriller "Death's Waiting Room," which he co-wrote and starred in alongside Aussie legend Roger Ward (Mad Max, Turkey Shoot, Boar). Additionally, Byrne has also featured in unforgettable roles for the SupaNova Comic-Con fan-favorite "A Blaster in the Right Hands," cult classic "Wyrmwood," and the multi-award-winning action film "Bleeding Backs."
Despite his preference for writing mainly horror and thrillers, Brendan has also published his first children's book, "Christmas is Here." His successes as a professional in the film industry are truly remarkable and can serve as a great source of inspiration to the generations to come.
