Actor Thomas Sadoski will join Texas A&M graduate and Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Lyle Lovett for a discussion about acting and artistry on April 1 at 9:10 a.m. at the Black Box Theater in the Liberal Arts and Arts & Humanities Building.
All are invited to attend the event, which is part of Lovett’s Hagler Fellow residency with the College of Performance, Visualization and Fine Arts.
Sadoski grew up in College Station and graduated from A&M Consolidated High School before embarking on an acting career.
He began in the theatre in New York and Massachusetts. Among his many credits is Neil LaBute’s “Reasons to Be Pretty,” which earned Sadoski nominations for a Tony Award, Drama Desk Award, Outer Critics Circle Award and Drama League Award in 2009.
Film appearances include “Wild” (2014) with Reese Witherspoon; “John Wick” and its sequel (2014 and 2017) with Keanu Reeves; “I Smile Back” (2015) with Sarah Silverman; and “Lilly” (2024) with Patricia Clarkson. His television work includes “Life in Pieces” on CBS (2015-2019) and HBO’s “The Newsroom” (2012-2014).
Sadoski acted alongside wife Amanda Seyfried in the Apple miniseries “The Crowded Room” (2023), as well as in the film “The Last Word” (2017) and the horror short “Skin & Bone” (2022).
In 2025, Sadoski produced and starred in the family drama/comedy “Adult Children,” which won several film festival honors.
Sadoski’s latest film is “Group: The Schopenhauer Effect,” which was released on March 13.
Lovett’s residency continues April 7 with a screening of the 1999 film “Cookie’s Fortune,” directed by Robert Altman, who was known for an improvisatory and collaborative working method on set. Lovett and screenwriter Anne Rapp will discuss their work with Altman and this team-focused way of making movies. The free event starts at 7 p.m. at Geren Auditorium, Langford Architecture Center, Building B.
