Taylor Gray is an actor & writer. You might recognize him as Jedi Ezra Bridger from the incredibly popular Disney animated series STAR WARS: REBELS. He is starring in Sony Pictures' film SNL 1975, playing the role of Al Franken alongside Willem Dafoe, Dylan O'Brien and J.K. Simmons. The film is being directed by Jason Reitman and is based on real-life behind- the-scenes accounts of the opening night of Saturday Night Live.

Taylor recently wrapped the indie film, ANY DAY NOW, written and directed by Eric Aronson. He stars as the lead of the upcoming film, HIGH EXPECTATIONS, opposite Kelsey Grammer. Prior to that, Taylor starred in the series, IN THE VAULT, and recurred on Jenji Kohan's comedy, AMERICAN PRINCESS. He also starred opposite Amber Midthunder in Steve Pink's 2021 Tiff selection, THE WHEEL and received his MA from The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art.
