VERNON WELLS

Strong-featured Australian actor Vernon Wells was born December 1945 in Rushworth, rural Victoria, to Eva Maude (Jackson) and Michael Wells. He initially worked in a quarry, and then as a salesman. He was noticed by casting agents and started to appear in Australian TV commercials, print ads, local Australian TV shows such as “Homicide” and “Matlock Police”. His first cinema appearance was a minor role in Felicity (1978), a low budget, erotic fantasy film. However, Wells was then fortunate to be cast as the homicidal biker “Wez”, in the big budget The Road Warrior (1981) filmed around Silverton near Broken Hill in outback New South Wales, Australia. It’s the role for which he is probably best known to international audiences, as Wells portrays a psychotic, post apocalyptic gang leader who relentlessly pursues hero Mel Gibson, before meeting a spectacular death at the film’s finale. Hollywood beckoned for Wells, and he spoofed his mad biker role in the popular teen comedy Weird Science (1985), before taking on another villainous role as the treacherous ex-soldier “Bennett”, who foolishly double crosses Arnold Schwarzenegger in Commando (1985). Once more, Wells meets a dramatic end, as he is impaled against a boiler at the film’s conclusion, as big Arnold remarks “Let off some steam, Bennett”. Wells continued to find regular work as a “villain” of one description or another, predominantly in B-grade thrillers or action films including Last Man Standing (1987), Circuitry Man (1990), Kick of Death (1997) and Starforce (2000). The talented Wells then landed a recurring role as futuristic criminal “Ransik” in the highly popular “Power Rangers” TV series, and subsequent series of films including _Power Rangers Time Force: Photo Finish (2001)_, _Power Rangers Time Force: The End of Time (2002)_ and _Power Rangers Time Force: Dawn of Destiny (2002)_.

His range of credits include studio features to low budge indie films, series regulars to web series, and Broadway to Waiver Theater. Vinny believes it is an honor and privilege to meet other actors with varied levels of experience and/or fame, even celebrity. Among the Directors he’s worked for are Woody Allen, Barry Levinson, Michael Mann, David Mamet, Ivan Reitman, and Garry Marshall. He has worked with stars from all generations including our most revered heroes like Jackie Gleason, Don Ameche, Vera Miles, James Earl Jones and Peter Boyle to contemporary stars like W.H. Macy, Clark Gregg, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Julia Styles, Cuba Gooding Jr. and Freddie Rodriguez. His experiences have been further enhanced by being given the opportunity to work with world class cinematographers such as Roger Deakins, Juan Ruiz Anchia, John Alonzo, Robert Elswit, and Janusz Kaminski. Originally from Jersey City Vinny attended the University of Toledo in Ohio where he earned a BA in Theater. After that he moved to Chicago to attend graduate school at the Goodman School of Drama; then a conservatory under the aegis of the Art Institute of Chicago, now called The Theater School at DePaul University. He earned his BFA and MFA concurrently while there and started working in Equity Theater within a month after graduation. He stayed in Chicago during the burgeoning 1970’s and moved to L.A. in January of 1980. Upon arrival in L.A. he starred in a stage play called Bleacher Bums with his friends Joe Mantegna, Dennis Franz, and other members of Chicago’s Organic Theater who all migrated to L.A. at the same time. He signed immediately with iconic agents Phil Arcara, Richard Bauman, and Wally Hiller. Within months after his arrival Vincent became a working actor. His TV credits show how prolific he was and how versatile his work was establishing him as a desirable cast member. Vincent continued to work on TV Movies and MOW’s until he landed the role of Desk Sgt. Agostini for the first four seasons of NYPD Blue; he won a SAG award as part of that cast for Best Ensemble. Vincent’s work in the theater took him back to Chicago, to Center Stage in Baltimore, and to the American Repertory Theater in Cambridge where he work shopped a new Mamet play that eventually brought him to Broadway where he co-starred in an eight month run with Patti Lupone in David Mamet’s autobiographical drama The Old Neighborhood.
