“Russell is a force to be reckoned with. The only thing that’s going to stop him is a shotgun at close range.”
-Stephen Snyder casting director/acting coach
“Our praise for G. Russell Reynolds is limited only by the finite amount of adjectives in the English Language. If anyone brings the state of acting to its perfection, it is G. Russell Reynolds. With regard to acting, one does not watch Russell act, one experiences it. Russell is punctual, professional, athletic, dedicated, resilient, eager, clever, innovative, stubborn, malleable, and capable of deep transformations. His precision is matched only by his tenacity, his tireless search for the sleek and stylish summation of any scene in which he is a part. Simply, an amazing actor whom we were pleased to work with, and so hope to do so again.”

Russell……….
Are you proud of yourself? Well you certainly deserve to be! I am proud to know you, much less to be in your movie ‘The Other Cheek’. You were a pleasure to work with and you have remained a pleasure to know from that time forward. You know how much that means.
You deserve a lot of credit for being such a big person. There aren’t many that have that class – but you certainly do!
You have my utmost confidence, respect and affection.
Sincerely,
Gayle
“Russell Reynolds is committed to the success of the entire project. When I worked with him, he was always looking for ways to help in capacities other than just acting. Unlike many actors, he was not entirely self-focused. He realized he was a piece of a larger production. Because of this, he demonstrated to me a true commitment to storytelling.”

Producer, Co-writer

I am blessed with the opportunity to work with such talented people. I get to help mold a vision into reality by capturing the emotions, the expressions, and the life that you so unselfishly bring. I feel like the proud parent as our distributor raves on and on about the project, including the incredible acting. It is those moments that being a director is like being on top of the world. I am proud and honored to have had the opportunity to work with you. Your talent amazes me, and your willingness to do whatever is necessary is inspiring.

You are incredible!!! Our distributor rambled on and on with excitement about the whole film! I’m not sure she ever completed a sentence! You would have thought she won the lotto…then again…maybe she did! Basically, she was blown away and I am too! We couldn’t have done it with out you and all your hard work. I can’t thank you enough for giving us 110% everyday and for sharing your talent with us. It was rewarding to work with you and to get to know you. I look forward to working with you again!
Thanks,

“Russell brought the look and the talent to the very difficult role we needed for “The One Among Us”. We were very lucky to find him.”

“Working with Russell Reynolds was an enlightening experience for me as a director. His remarkable performances, character insight, and passion, really opened my eyes to the depth that a truly skilled actor can bring to a performance. “ Amazing versatility, inner-strength, focused intensity, and pure and simple wisdom: everything you would expect from a highly talented actor, and then some.

I had the privilege of working with Russell Reynolds. We are always striving to find talented people to work in our films who exhibit a willingness to get it right, without forgetting how important all others members of the cast and production team are. Russell is one of those people who loves what he is doing, gives great energy to the whole team and not once did I ever hear a complaint.
Russell has an awesome talent and was able to bring a clever spark to the charter he played. It is my impression that he will be a welcome influence to any project that he may be involved in, in the future.

“Russell Reynolds was such an influence during the making of A Texas Tale that I change the ending giving him more screen time and in return it made the film’s ending ten times better than was originally written.”
-Andrew Bowles
Hey Russell,
Thanks again for being a part of “Dearly Departed” – you were awesome and I’d work with you again in a heartbeat. I hope we get a chance to do more in the future.
