Gabriel Loyer - Actor/Writer

Gabriel Loyer is an actor as subtle as he is intense, possessing a striking and formidable presence. He approaches his roles with physical intensity and precision. He exhibits incredible range, imbuing equal measure of passion into the mundanity of the everyman and the cool ruthlessness of amoral government agents.

His signature role thus far may well be as Harold, a determined mathematician and practitioner of logic, oddly blinded to all reason, in Intense Math. This role—obsessive, defiant, and spastically physical at times—has afforded him the most acclaim. Not to be overlooked are his turns at restrained insanity: a frantic mental patient intent on escape in I'm Not Crazy, the troubled and tragically inquisitive Scott Williamson in The Glove Box, and the progressively disturbed Gary Langley, raging against forces unseen, in Outside In.

In addition to being an award-winning actor, Loyer is also a talented writer and director. He is a repeated choice for key roles in Matter of Chance films, currently preparing to portray a young Fidel Castro in Sierra Maestra, and boisterous prizefighter Bolie Robinson in Everlast.
