Bill McAdams, Jr. has spent over two and a half decades cultivating a multifaceted career in the entertainment industry, boasting an impressive portfolio of acting, directing, writing, and producing credits.
His academic background is equally impressive, having graduated from The Catholic University of America in 1994 with a double major in Theater Arts and Philosophy. In a bold move, Bill took his senior baseball picture to Camden Yards in Baltimore, where he handed it to the casting director of the film Major League 2, and just a month later, he was earning his first film credit as a utility baseball player.
Bill's career began to take shape when he worked as a stand-in for Matt Damon on The Rainmaker, marking the start of a long-standing professional relationship with the acclaimed actor. He went on to serve as Matt Damon's personal photo double on several notable films, including the Academy Award-winning Good Will Hunting, Rounders, and Dogma.
Throughout his career, Bill has had the privilege of working alongside some of the most talented individuals in the industry, including Academy Award-winning actors, writers, directors, and cinematographers. This valuable experience has led to opportunities to collaborate with esteemed directors such as Steven Spielberg on Amistad and David Lynch on The Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive.
In addition to his work as a double, Bill has also honed his writing skills, penning his first feature film, Gallows Road, while working on the set of Good Will Hunting. This passion project, which took 16 years to come to fruition, was finally brought to life in 2010, starring Kevin Sorbo and Ernie Hudson.
As a director, Bill has enjoyed a successful career, having helmed numerous award-winning PSA's and feature films. His creative journey has been marked by a passion for storytelling, and he continues to be driven by a desire to craft compelling narratives that captivate and inspire audiences.
