Raised on a steady diet of Marvel Comics, Science Fiction, Musical Theater, and Action Movies from the 80's and 90's, Andrew Bowen is a multi-talented actor/writer/director/producer whose infectious passion for cinema, comedy, and character-driven storytelling has been the driving force behind his two decades of work in the film and television industry.
After his hilarious debut as Jack Freemont in Capcom's live action "Fox Hunt" game, Bowen become a series regular on Fox's comedy series Mad TV where his impressions of Keanu Reeves and Nicolas Cage became legendary. Bowen has continued to find success as an actor appearing in dozens of TV series, independent films, and over 150 national commercials, working with industry legends from Gale Anne Hurd (Aliens, The Walking Dead), James Mangold (Logan, Ford VS Ferrari), Lasse Hallström (What's Eating Gilbert Grape) Uma Thurman and more. Some of Bowen's notable film credits include roles in Blumhouse's horror anthology Holidays, All for Nikki, Conjurer, Rock Jocks, and The Work & The Glory (parts 1 and 2). He has guest starred on shows from NCIS to Shameless, and had recurring roles in several series, including Magic City and ER.
Bowen has lent his considerable voice-over talents to brands including Lexus, Jeep, NAVY, and McDonald's - and been featured in some of the most successful video game titles of all time - including Star Wars; The Old Republic, Saint's Row, and his hugely popular work voicing Johnny Cage in Warner Brother Games' Mortal Kombat X, MK11, and MK1.
An accomplished screenwriter and director, Bowen made his directorial debut with the independent feature Along The Way. A haunting portrait of American youth in the late 90s, the film was an award-winning festival darling that enjoyed a successful limited theatrical run and DVD release in 2007. Bowen returned to directing in 2018, making a wildly fun, sci-fi, action adventure short film The 716th. Written, directed, produced, edited, production designed, and starring Bowen, the short went on to World Premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival to rave reviews and was released on Amazon Prime later that year. The popular short has enjoyed over 2 million views to date and built a large and enthusiastic fan base.
In 2023 Bowen formed Anatomic Pictures, a production banner with fellow The 716th executive producer Daniel C. Allison and VFX supervisor/producer Jon Alvord. AP is developing a large and dynamic slate of film & TV projects including the psychological horror thriller Scent (which Bowen is attached to direct), and an expanded Film and TV Universe based on the hugely popular The 716th. Later this year, AP will be releasing a director's cut of Bowen's debut feature Along The Way. Digitally remastered in 4K from its original 35mm negative for its Streaming debut, the film will represent the definitive version of Bowen's poignant and haunting love letter to Generation X.
