12. Joel Stoffer - Actor

Meet Joel Stoffer! Joel is an Actor.  He lives in Los Angeles and is that rarity in the business a local, having grown up in the valley. Joel has been a professional actor for nearly 30 years and he’s portrayed everything from criminals, demons, and vampires to doctors, lawyers, and government agents. Most notably, you may have seen him in Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., as Enoch the Chronicom. And most recently, he was Eddie Munson’s uncle – Wayne Munson on season 4 of Stranger Things. But before things got strange for Joel, and even before he traveled to space and time, he and I worked together on a couple of my short films  -- he was a misunderstood photographer in #nofilter which screened at the 2016 Cannes Short Film Corner and he was a clown gigolo in the award-winning clown western – Bozonova. I’m so excited to bring you my conversation with Joel, we chat about the actor/director relationship, the importance of trust when making a film, and about his time on Stranger Things.

Joel’s Bio -

Having been a professional actor for nearly 30 years, Joel has had a few opportunities to leave a mark (so to speak) portraying everything from criminals, demons and vampires to doctors, lawyers and government agents. More recently, you may have seen him as Enoch the Chronicom in Marvel’s of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and as Wayne Munson in Season 4 of Stranger Things. Cris Graves even hired him to play a gigolo clown in her short film Bozonova and he is thrilled to be chatting with her now on her very own podcast.
