Bret Roberts

A square-jawed, rough-hewn character actor often typecast as blue-collar toughs or working-class folks (albeit generally good-natured ones) -- such as sailors, cabbies, and bikers -- Bret Roberts specialized almost exclusively in bit parts and supporting roles. Roberts debuted on the big screen under the aegis of Michael Bay as a sailor in that helmer's blockbuster epic Pearl Harbor (2001), then racked up credits including Nightstalker (2002), Chasing Papi (2003), In Search of a Midnight Kiss (2007), and Green Flash (2008). The latter -- a sports drama -- witnessed Roberts graduating from bit player to supporting actor.
