Jeff Kueppers

Jeff Kueppers, straight outta Minneapolis, Minnesota—yeah, he’s got that Midwest vibe going on—has actually been shaking things up in the world of film and TV for a while now. You might’ve caught his name in the credits and thought, “Wait, where do I know that guy from?” Well, let me jog your memory. The dude’s got some serious range, both in front of the camera and behind the scenes. Back in 2007, he produced and acted in "The Wedding Video”—which, by the way, wasn’t your average cookie-cutter romcom. Think awkward family moments, chaos at the altar, people making questionable choices with a camera rolling the whole time. It’s like if your cousin’s wedding went off the rails, but with better lighting. Kueppers knows how to find the cringe and mine it for gold. Fast forward a bit, and he’s got credits on “S.W.A.T.” (2017), that high-octane police drama with enough action to keep your heart pounding and your popcorn flying. Those episodes aren’t just about the stunts—there’s actually some decent character work, and Kueppers had his fingerprints all over that vibe. He doesn’t shy away from tough, gritty stories that still sneak in those little human moments. More recently, he popped up on “Judy Justice” (2021), where he probably had to navigate the wild world of courtroom drama. Not exactly a walk in the park, but Kueppers brings this kinda realness and quick wit that just fits. Bottom line: the guy’s not afraid to mix it up, whether it’s laughter, adrenaline, or just straight-up drama.
