Tim Birks

Tim Birks has this knack for popping up in places you wouldn’t expect, and honestly, his filmography is kinda all over the map—in a good way. Dog Man (2025) is the latest thing everyone’s buzzing about, and it’s not your typical hero flick, either. There’s this raw, scrappy vibe to it that you just don’t see much anymore. You get a dude who’s more ragged than regal, stumbling through a world that doesn’t exactly roll out the red carpet. It’s gritty, sometimes even a little weird, and Birks brings that oddball energy that just...works. Roll it back a few years and he’s in The Crack: The Fugitive (2017), which has way more edge than most people expect. The movie’s basically a chase through the underbelly of some city that’s falling apart at the seams, and Birks makes you feel every moment of panic, confusion, and those rare flashes of hope. He’s not afraid to get messy or awkward, which is kind of the charm, really. Then there’s Jellikins (1999), which—let’s be real—couldn’t be more different. That one’s got a quirky, almost surreal style, with Birks navigating this oddball universe where nothing is quite what it seems. He manages to be both the straight man and the wildcard, which is a weird magic trick, but he pulls it off. Altogether, Tim Birks isn’t just bouncing from genre to genre—he’s out there making it look easy, and sometimes, making you wonder what on earth he’ll do next.
