Justin Rebelo’s filmography is a bit of a wild ride—he doesn’t stick to one vibe, he bounces. In Room for Rent (2017), you get this quirky blend of humor and darkness that sneaks up on you. The story centers around a guy who, honestly, isn’t exactly killing it at life. He’s desperate for cash and rents out a room in his house, but it spirals fast. The tenants who move in aren’t your average folks; there’s a steady stream of weirdos, secrets, and awkward confrontations. It’s less about the room itself and more about how bizarrely people act when their backs are against the wall. You think you’ve seen every oddball roommate scenario? Nah, this one goes places. Fast-forward to Take Me Back for Christmas (2023), and Rebelo flips genres completely. Here’s a story about second chances, regret, and, of course, a little holiday magic. The main character finds herself stuck in a rut, wishing she could redo the past. Poof—she wakes up in an alternate timeline where her choices led to a totally different life. There’s a lot of nostalgia, some classic Christmas movie cheesiness, and a reminder that you can’t really run from who you are. It’s sweet but doesn’t shy away from the messiness of real relationships. Pins & Needles (2024) goes in yet another direction. Think small-town drama meets psychological tension. The characters in this one are wrapped tight with secrets, and there’s an undercurrent of danger that keeps you on edge. Rebelo leans into the slow burn—every scene feels like something’s about to snap. By the time it’s over, you’re left wondering who was really the villain all along.
Born in Stratford, Ontario, this kid grew up surrounded by theater geeks and Shakespearean drama, which is kinda brilliant, honestly. Small town, big dreams—that’s how it usually goes, right? He didn’t exactly fit the hockey mold like everyone else in the area, but instead, he got hooked on music early. We’re talking about a place where everyone basically knows your business, so when he started posting covers online, the whole town watched. It didn’t take long for his videos to blow up and suddenly, he’s not just the local kid with a guitar anymore. Next thing you know, he’s got millions of views, managers calling, and that tiny Stratford life? Poof, gone. Even with all the chaos, he never really ditched his roots. You’ll still catch him mentioning Stratford in interviews, like he’s carrying a little piece of home everywhere. Fame hit fast, but the small-town vibes? They stuck.
