Hi, my name is Mark Rolston, I'm an actor and writer.
I knew I wanted to be an actor at age nine so I took my career and studies to London, England where I attended the Drama Centre London; the institution that has produced the likes of Colin Firth, Michael Fassbender, and Tom Hardy.
Some of my more iconic roles included Pvt. Drake in "Aliens", Bogs Diamond in "The Shawshank Redemption", the original Alistair in the mega hit series "Supernatural", and recently as Clive Davis in the Lifetime Feature "Whitney" directed by the incomparable Angela Bassett, and starring Yaya DaCosta.
I've had the honor to tour the United States playing Shakespeare’s Richard II and to create countless film and television characters; most recently a short film "His Lover" directed by John Barr, co-starring Paul Ben Victor, and a feature to look out for as Frank Maloney in "Glass Jaw" directed by Jeff Celentano, starring Lee Kholafai and Korrina Rico.
I've worked with amazing directors like James Cameron, John Frankenheimer, Martin Scorsese, and Frank Darabont, to countless brilliant cinematographers and crews that have made my career so much richer in experience. I'm forever grateful.
My next endeavor as writer and actor is very dear to my heart called "Me & Michael", an independent feature film project that has become an overwhelming passion of mine. Based on my friendship with a homeless man who has lived behind my home for the past seven years and who has changed my life forever. I have a deep desire to help him by sharing this important story. Ultimately, I wish to get my friend off of the streets.
I'm happy to be here today to talk about past, present, and future projects so Ask Me Anything!
Hey! I am here and ready to get started! Keep the questions coming!
Thank you everyone! This was a lot of fun! My first AMA! Who knew?! Hope you all enjoyed too! Best Wishes to All!
Outside the M-F rush hours, solo drivers can use the HOV lane too right?
Outside of rush hour it seems like I never see people utilizing the HOV lanes even when the other lanes are pretty packed. Am I just reading the signs wrong and asking for a huge ticket? lol
I've had the same commute for close to five years now and there's nothing I can do about it (taking metra isn't an easy or less expensive option in my case.) I don't have a lot of options in terms of other routes and I make the most of my time by listening to audio books, but it would just be nice to know if there's an actual reason for the increased traffic.
There's a small amount of construction, but it was there before the major traffic increase and didn't seem to cause too many problems. I'd blame school starting, but it was bad even before that.
Any ideas?
I play a LOT Rocket League, but I'm tempted to have the option to play on the go.
How is the game on the Switch. Any input lag? Are the joycons ok? I also have a pro controler.
For me i dont care about graphics if the gameplay is right.
Is RL worth on the switch?
This just happened to me a few minutes ago: Hopped on 5:03 pm rush hour train out of NY City, Walking through the train and all seats are taken, as I approach the last car i see a bag on and empty seat.... I ask the person next to the bag "is this yours?" he responds no and a woman in the next row says, it is mine for my husband. At this point it is 502 and doors are closing soon, I asked her where is he? She replies "soon", so I said, I will wait. As I am standing there and the doors close I asked her "did he make the train?" and she replies "next stop". At that point I made her remove her bag so I could sit .....Am I the asshole?
