Sean Bradley

Sean Bradley’s got one of those resumes that makes you do a double-take. Born in Beverly, Massachusetts, back in ’81, he’s become a bit of a low-key legend behind the scenes—a writer and producer with a knack for digging up stories that stick with you. Seriously, if you’ve caught “Last Stop Larrimah” (2023), you probably know what I mean. That doc’s a wild ride through the outback, full of quirky characters and this underlying sense of mystery that you can’t shake off. Bradley’s fingerprints are all over it, turning a tiny town’s secrets into something you actually care about. But then there’s “Paddleton” (2019), which hits totally different. That one’s more about friendship, loss, and the weird ways people cope with life going sideways. It’s not flashy—just raw, honest, and surprisingly funny in that “I probably shouldn’t be laughing at this” kind of way. Bradley seems to get what makes people tick, and he’s not afraid to let his stories get a little messy around the edges. You can tell he’s not just phoning it in; there’s some real heart behind the scripts. Now, with “Are We Good?” set to drop in 2025, it’s pretty clear he’s not slowing down. If his past work is anything to go by, you can expect something that doesn’t just tell a story but grabs hold and makes you think. That’s kind of his superpower—finding the weird, wonderful, rough-around-the-edges truth in everything.
