Openly gay actor, comedian and longtime LGBTQ+ trailblazer Jason Stuart is once again pushing boundaries with the release of his powerful new indie film, REDLINING, a project he co-wrote, directed, produced, and stars in—marking a deeply personal and uncompromising creative milestone in his decades-long career.
Known for his fearless comedy and unapologetic voice, Stuart brings that same raw honesty and sharp insight to REDLINING, a film that confronts systemic inequality, personal identity, and the emotional cost of being pushed to the margins. Equal parts provocative and human, the film reflects Stuart’s signature ability to blend hard truths with humor, heart, and lived experience. With REDLINING, he delivers one of his most ambitious and resonant works to date—both in front of and behind the camera.
REDLINING is a powerful film that explores the complex dynamics of generational wealth, privilege, and exclusion through nuanced performances and authentic, emotionally charged storytelling. Unflinching and deeply human, the film examines how inherited advantage—or the lack of it—shapes identity, opportunity, and survival. With a sharp eye and no filter, Stuart delivers a story that feels both intensely personal and urgently relevant.
The film features a standout ensemble cast that blends prestige and talent:
- Alexandra Paul (Baywatch, Dragnet, American Flyers) showcases a remarkable range, aging from 40 to 75 on screen. Beyond Baywatch, Paul has consistently proven her dramatic depth, much like Pamela Anderson’s recent critical resurgence; Indie Series Award winner (Mentor)
- Lee Garlington, Emmy-nominated veteran (Field of Dreams, Sneakers, One Hour Photo)
- Kareem Ferguson (Winning Time, Monsters)
- Dalila Ali Rajah (guest star across all Shonda Rhimes series; Amsterdam)
- Scott Krinsky (Chuck, Tangerine, Togetherness)
As REDLINING enters the festival circuit, Stuart remains equally unstoppable on stage, with numerous live comedy club performances scheduled over the coming months. Whether delivering razor-sharp stand-up or uncompromising cinema, Stuart continues to prove his voice is as urgent and necessary as ever. For his upcoming live comedy shows, fans can expect the wit and fearless storytelling that have made him a standout voice in comedy for decades.
A pioneer of LGBTQ+ representation in stand-up comedy and film, Stuart has spent his career opening doors for marginalized voices while refusing to soften his message. REDLINING and Stuart’s continued presence on stage underscore a singular truth: Jason Stuart is not slowing down—he’s leveling up, on his own terms.
