Gerald Robert Waddell
Gerald Robert Waddell’s filmography is a bit of a wild ride, honestly. You’ve got “A Late Separation” from 2018—a drama that isn’t afraid to dig into the messiness of breaking up when you’re way past the whole “starter marriage” stage. It’s not your usual heartbreak fare. The story follows a couple who’ve been together for what feels like forever, and then suddenly, poof, everything unravels. There’s this raw, sometimes uncomfortably honest look at what happens when people try to split their lives after decades. Think awkward family dinners, sorting through old photos, and trying to remember who got the blender in ’92. The performances hit hard—Waddell brings this world-weariness that feels so real, you wanna buy him a drink just to cheer him up.
Jump to “Project MKHEXE” (2025), and now you’re in a totally different universe. Sci-fi, conspiracy theories, shadowy government types—the works. The plot’s locked up tighter than Fort Knox, but word is, it’s inspired by those old-school, tinfoil-hat MKUltra rumors. Waddell’s role? Mysterious, naturally. Is he a scientist, a pawn, or something else? That’s half the fun. The movie teases you with questions, never quite letting you get comfortable.
Then there’s “The Dogs” (2018), which is kinda gritty and rough around the edges. Urban setting, tense atmosphere, a bunch of broken people trying to make sense of their lives. Waddell’s character is right in the middle, trying to keep it together while everything falls apart. Each of these films shows a different slice of his range—he’s not afraid to get his hands dirty, emotionally or otherwise.
