Paul Kennedy Jr.

Paul Kennedy Jr. is a military veteran having served five years as a Navy Diver. After his service Paul simultaneously studied acting and aerospace engineering, his two deepest passions. Paul lives in Los Angeles where he works as an actor and an Aerospace Engineer on the James Webb Space Telescope. Paul's work motto is "Everything Counts" & his life motto is "More Good Times". He is often compared to James Caan & Josh Brolin in his acting, while drawing heavy influence from Jack Nicholson, as One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest is the film that made Paul want to be an actor. Kennedy was born in Tennessee, USA, to a French-Scottish father, Paul Kennedy Sr. from Ojai California, and a Cajun mother, Rochelle from Crystal River, Florida. Paul Jr. and his two sisters were raised in the middle east (specifically Saudi Arabia) & throughout the American South. His father worked in the petrochemical industry, a career which took the Kennedy family around the world many times over before Paul Jr. reached the age of thirteen. Fun facts: During his time as a diver in the navy for 40 consecutive days, Paul spent nearly 200 hours under water replacing the "screws" AKA propellers on the nuclear propelled American Aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower. At his peak Paul could hold his breath for well over five minutes and dive to depths of over 100 feet on a single breath.

By June 1942, the Japanese Navy has swept across the Pacific. In an effort to change the course of the war, a United States carrier group is positioned off the coast of Midway, tasked with springing a trap on the enemy. During this pivotal battle, the two-man crew of a U.S. Navy dive bomber is forced to ditch in the sea. Set adrift, the men look towards their comrades for rescue; namely, the ragtag crew of a PBY Catalina, who are sent to search for survivors. Amid the vast openness of the Pacific, with days passing and the chance of rescue fading, the men are forced to face their own mortality.
