For a man raised in Detroit, MICHIGAN, Eric Brandon Maldonado drives his Southern accent home to Alabama in the movie, "The Orchard Baby." - Maldonado plays the role of Jim, a Southern aristocrat, who is racist, angry and cynical. Being a Southern woman who detests the fake Southern accents in major motion films, Joy Willow didn't think twice about Maldonado's accent when she cast him for the part. The film will be released in the Spring of 2014.- Y'all come!

Eric is a very professional person and a dedicated actor, that also helped out with set design and construction. And whatever needed to be done to get the job done. It was a pleasure working with him. I would highly recommended him. He has a good personality and great sense of humor. I look forward to working with him again! I am sure he would give his all to any production he is involved with. Give him a shot you won't be sorry!

Eric came to me at a time when I didn't have a role available for his age range. However, his integrity and confident manner intested me to keep his acting profile on file for future projects.

One thing key about acting other than being believeable and summersed in your character is being very personable off the set as well. Eric was genuinely great to be around and very helpful as well. Unlike some talent who think they are the best thing since sliced bread, Eric is more humble in nature, making the business-side of his talent a highlight.

I strongly recommend getting him involved in a performing arts project if you are considering one. And definitely get him in your talent pool!

Eric is a born natural. I had the pleasure of directing Eric on serval episodes of a show I produced. He was so good we expanded the role just so we could use more of Eric's talents. I hope one day to work with Eric again.

Eric is a talented actor, equally able to play serious roles as he is to be very, very funny. He does amazing impersonations and is very quick on his feet with improvisation. His work includes great character portrayal, from a disturbed Russian spy to a golly-gee-whiz boyfriend, he is believable. He is imaginative and great fun to work with.
March 12, 2012, Irma was with another company when working with Eric at Republic Talent and Modeling Management
