“There’s the heavy implication in O’Neal’s touching but unnerving performance… the barely suppressed despair is in every frame.”
— Whittaker, Richard. “Other Worlds Review: Homebody” The Austin Chronicle, December 14, 2021.
REEL
Jordan O’Neal is an Actor, Writer, Director, and Producer based out of Austin, Texas. Born and raised in Houston, Texas, Jordan’s love for storytelling began when he saw Jurassic Park at a friend’s house, and was blown away that people get paid to make movies.
During high school he made his first short film, winning Best Drama at a local film festival. From there he studied film and theatre at the University of Texas, earning a Bachelors of Science in Radio-Televivion-Film from the College of Communications.
After college he studied with Lee Stringer at Film Acting Academy in Houston, then Laurel Vouvray at In The Moment Acting Studio, followed by Carol Hickey Acting Studio as well with Richard Robichaux. His passion project, Fabletown which he wrote, directed, co-produced, and starred in, has won over two dozen awards to date including “Best Actor in a Fan Film” at the Best Actor & Director Awards - New York, both the Judges’ and Audience Award for Best Feature Film at the Austin Under The Stars Film Festival, and Best Texas Produced Script at the Austin Revolution Film Festival.
His latest most prolific role was in Season 2 of Taylor Sheridan’s epic series 1923 where he can be spotted in episode 4 during the scenes in Grand Central Station.
