Taylor McCluskey is a highly accomplished actor, writer, filmmaker, and musician. He is the Founder and President of TaylorMade Films.
A true artistic Renaissance man, Taylor’s on-camera experience ranges from background performances on blockbuster films like Star Trek & Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen to leading roles in films such as 2013's comedy, The Mirror.
Taylor also has extensive experience behind the camera, having co-written and produced films such as The Mirror and the American Express-backed design documentary Legends about Los Angeles' iconic La Cienega design quarter. Taylor also directed, wrote, produced, and starred in a short film called "Greenback$," with comedian Jud Travis.
In addition to acting, directing, and writing, Taylor is an accomplished musician who has headlined Sunset Strip staples like The Whisky, The Viper, and HOB. His EP, “Wild Ride,” contains tracks that were featured in the Lifetime original movie Don't Look Back, as well as in advertisements for the West Hollywood spin studio, Cycle House. Taylor is currently at work on a new 10-track record with Glen Robinson (Keith Richards, George Martin, Dave Grohl, David Bowie) called "24 hrs.”
Awards include having won best actor for “Greenback$” at the 2017 Independent Filmmakers Showcase IFS Film Festival in Los Angeles, as well as having been named a Semi-Finalist at Flicker Rhode Island International Film Festival for a script he wrote entitled, “Youngblood.”
Taylor studied film at UCLA while interning at Handmade Films, the production company founded by George Harrison. A father of two, he is an ardent supporter of numerous nonprofits supporting Gold Star families, veterans, and K9s.
Taylor’s current film projects include executive producing "Forevermind" and "And Youngblood.” He also has completed a new TV and feature film script called "The Devil You Know" about a DEVGRU team hunting down a Mexican Cartel, which leverages his talents as a writer, producer, and actor.

It all started when…
"I'm As Mad As Hell And I'm Not Going To Take This Anymore!"
(Network is a 1976 American satirical film written by Paddy Chayefsky and directed by Sidney Lumet).
That is when I decided to start my own production company in Hollywood and to make independent films that are edgy and intellectually satisfying.
