Brett Cullen has been cast in the Kassen brothers’ drama “Puncture,” about a troubled young attorney who must come to terms with his own demons when taking on a health care giant.

Dennis Quaid’s best pal was playing husband to the movie star’s ex when he heard the news THE ROOKIE star’s twins were fighting for their lives.
Actor Brett Cullen has been close with Quaid ever since they both attended college
together in Texas, and he still can’t forget the odd circumstances surrounding how he learned of his friend’s medical emergency at the end of 2007.
The tots, Thomas Boone and Zoe Grace, were placed in an intensive care unit in a Los Angeles-area hospital after they were given an accidental drug overdose.
And Cullen …

Actor Brett Cullen took his first audition on a dare. A senior at Houston’s James Madison High School, and better known as a baseball player and surfer than a serious actor, Cullen gave into his friends and tried out for the lead role in the school play. To everyone’s surprise, he was selected.
“It scared the daylights out of me,” Cullen said. “I didn’t want to do it, but I did … and it went on to win several …

It’s impossible to discuss the film The Life Before Her Eyes without bringing up death. Brett Cullen plays the husband of a woman who, as a child, survived a Columbine-type school shooting. The Houston-born, -raised and -trained actor calls the film “a sad, visual poem.”
Cullen, who doesn’t believe in one-word answers, quickly gets to the story of his own near-death experience. As a teenager with “hair down to my (butt),” Cullen was surfing off of Mexico when the “swell jacked up …

The first thing Jeffrey D. Sams wants you to know about “NTSB: The Crash of Flight 323” is that it isn’t your typical disaster movie calculated to make you terrified to fly.
“Let me put it this way,” he said. “I hate flying. Hate it. And this film actually reassured me about not just how safe it is generally but also how many people are working so hard to make air travel even safer.”
The fictional ABC movie, which premieres Thursday at 8 p.m. on …

My first impression of Brett Cullen came from his performance in “The Replacements,” in which he portrayed an egotistical, mean-spirited professional football player who gives Keanu Reeves and his band of misfits trouble.
Shortly after the film’s release last year, he arrived in the metropolitan area to support the Special Friends Celebrations.
At a meet-and-greet, I saw him – much taller in person – standing near the door, talking with one of his colleagues. He displayed an open, friendly attitude, so I …

HOLLYWOOD (Variety) – “On Golden Pond” “is a rare and memorable theatrical experience that doesn’t come along that often,” according to Variety’s Oct. 18, 1978, Off-Broadway (Hudson Guild Theatre) review.
Variety’s March 17, 1979, Broadway review (Apollo Theatre) said, “On the basis of ‘On Golden Pond,’ his first play, Ernest Thompson is a promising new dramatist, with an agreeable combination of wit and heart. If he can write more scripts, not necessarily based on close personal experience, the theater will be that much …

In The Replacements, Brett Cullen is the rival quarterback who gives Keanu Reeves a hard time.
“You’re not a has-been,” he shouts to the eager-to-make-good Reeves. “You’re a never-was.”
Being a nasty character is not the image Cullen usually projects. Friends of the Houston-born actor — who has been making a steady living in Hollywood for 21 years — prefer to think of him as a nice guy.
“A lot of friends of mine didn’t dig (that part) at all,” says Cullen, who had …

The back of a truck is an unlikely place for an interview, but not if you’re talking to Brett Cullen. And not when the truck is parked in the rural canyon country north of Los Angeles for a Falcon Crest shoot – the great outdoors seems a natural fit for the tall, lanky actor. Wearing Dan Fixx’s habitual blue jeans and cowboy boots, he looks like a younger, Southern relative of William Hurt, his longish blonde hair …

Though their western TV show was hardly given a chance to build an audience (it was taken off the air so soon!) handsome hunks JIMMY VAN PATTEN and BRETT CULLEN sure left lasting impressions on your heart!
Jimmy, natch, is one of those terrifically talented Van Pattens (he’s Dick’s middle son and Tim’s nephew) he’s 23 years old (he celebrates October 7) and has blue eyes and brown hair. Jimmy lives in a mobile home overlooking the ocean near Malibu, California and surfing rates as …
