Over 20 Years Later, Brian Atene Is Still Holding On To A Dream
Self-professed Juilliard-trained thespian and Star Trek aficionado Brian Atene has developed a massive and rabid following since exploding on the scene with our recent posting of his 1984 videotaped audition for director Stanley Kubrick. And while a global effort to relocate the current YouTube It boy and dramatic savant has until now turned up nothing better than his 1976 seventh grade class photo, we are thrilled to announce that Mr. Atene himself has opted to reemerge into the public eye with yet another YouTube tour-de-force performance. The current Brian looks somewhat older, girthier, and has the face of a completely different person with a great idea for his fanciful video response, but he nonetheless exhibits a masterly control over his unique acting instrument.
