Meet The Cast Of Hold My Beer: Ethan Blackwelder

We're back to Hold My Beer cast introductions! This week, we're featuring Ethan Blackwelder.

Ethan is playing Sky, another friend of Val (the lead character). Sky has known Val since high school and has always been there when Val needed someone to lean on. Together with Jess, the three of them make a tight and trusting trio.

Fun fact: Ethan is the son of Aaron, a teacher at Woodland High School who has hosted me in his classroom to talk about the Joel Suzuki series, and Heidi, who was the makeup artist for Hold My Beer (and will be featured in a future post).

Here's his bio:

Ethan Blackwelder is a 22-year-old neurodivergent actor from Vancouver, Washington. He started his performing arts journey in 2012 in a local youth theater group. Over the past decade, he has accumulated extensive stage experience and has worked as an extra on television, gaining valuable industry insight. Hold My Beer represents his debut on the big screen, and he is thrilled to embark on this new chapter.

Thanks for being part of our cast, Ethan!
