Dew Pillsbury



Drew Pillsbury (Jon) has worked for over twenty-five years as an actor, getting his start opposite Griffin Dunne and Madonna in the resounding flop WHO'S THAT GIRL.  With nowhere to go but up, he subsequently starred in the critically acclaimed independent film JEROME, opposite Wendie Malick.  JEROME appeared in numerous film festivals around the world, including Taos, Austin, AFI, Munich, and Berlin.  Of the film, the LA Times wrote, Taut and compelling an example of mature, disciplined American independent filmmaking at its best. JEROME was released theatrically and subsequently picked up by the Sundance Channel.  

Finding his passion in the indie world, Drew began to write.  His first feature, 100 MILE RULE, stars Maria Bello, Jake Weber and Michael McKean, and was purchased by HBO after appearing at numerous film festivals, including Cannes, Cinequest, Santa Barbara, Palm Springs, Taos, Nashville, USA, Fort Lauderdale and Stony Brook where it garnered the Audience Choice award.  Pillsbury's second film, BROKEN, stars Heather Graham, Jeremy Sisto and Tess Harper.  The film premiered at the AFI Film Festival.  First Look Studios released BROKEN in NY, LA, Chicago, Austin and Minneapolis and then it was subsequently picked up by SHOWTIME.  

fifty-nothing marks Drew's third produced film as a screenwriter.  Currently he's working on a TV Pilot and starring as Robert McNamara in Michael Bay's, TRANSFORMERS 3: DARK OF THE MOON.
