Alex Bentley: From Pro Baseball to Hollywood & Firefighters in Banana Land

On this episode of The Talk of Fame Podcast, we got to chat with Alex Bentley! a dynamic Middle Eastern-American actor and producer with a story that’s as inspiring as it is unique. Born in sunny San Diego and raised in the Middle East, Alex’s journey to the spotlight is anything but ordinary. Before gracing our screens, he was chasing a professional baseball career, playing semi-pro in Mexico and Europe and now playing for the Firefighters in The Savannah Bananas League. But fate had other plans. While playing college ball in San Diego, he scored his first role—playing a Padres player on FOX's Pitch. That moment marked his unexpected, but powerful, pivot from the diamond to the screen. Since then, Alex has lit up projects like Beckman alongside Brighton Sharbino and Billy Baldwin, Pam & Tommy with Sebastian Stan, Tell It Like A Woman opposite Jennifer Hudson, and 80 for Brady with legends Jane Fonda and Sally Field. 

Listen in as we discuss Alex’s Journey & playing baseball for the Firefighters.  You’ll be inspired by his dedication to her craft and making a difference for young baseball fans.
