GABE GABRIEL (he/they) is a theatre-trained actor whose habit of writing his own roles catapulted him into professional screenwriting during his five-year stint in Hollywood. Before that, Gabe was nominated for two Fleur du Cap acting awards fresh out of drama school, toured Edinburgh Fringe Fest, Dublin International Gay & Lesbian Fest, and Makhanda’s National Arts Fest among others with two acclaimed theatre productions. He landed his first studio film role in Nikolaj Arcel’s The Dark Tower whilst studying under top Hollywood acting coach, Howard Fine, and continuing to write and produce his own acting content, including 52 one-minute short films, released each week throughout 2018. His lead turn in the 2023 Netflix release, Runs In The Family, marked Gabe’s first professional role since he came out as trans in 2019 and he has since had the pleasure of acting opposite such heavyweights as Zazie Beetz, Glen Powell, Patricia Arquette, Myha'la, Ken Jeong, Tom Felton, and Dave Bautista.
