202. Creed Bratton: 32 Facts on the Hilarious Supporting Star of 'The Office' | Our Favorite Rock Grandpa

Published: March 19, 2021, 5 p.m.

If you\u2019ve seen my page on Hollywood Insider\u2019s website, you know I\u2019m a huge fan of the classic sitcom \u2018The Office.\u2019 As much as I love Michael\u2019s silly antics or Jim\u2019s ongoing mission to be the snarkiest man alive, my heart will always belong to Creed. How to describe the character Creed? Imagine if your grandpa was a meth dealer, an ex-cult leader, all at the same time. Creed is the king of hilarious one-liners and a man of mystery. And he is played by and at least partially based on his real-life counterpart, actor Creed Bratton. Bratton has lived the life of a legend; he\u2019s a rockstar, an actor, and the ultimate symbol of how to be epic in your late-70s. It\u2019s a career that could even make his workaholic Wild at Heart and Dog Eat Dog co-star Nicolas Cage jealous. The actor is refreshingly egalitarian--he speaks of his time working on Speed 2: Cruise Control and his collaborations with Lars Von Trier with the same twinkle in his eye. He\u2019s just as comfortable working in blockbuster franchises as he is working in A24 arthouse dramas. \t
