The Middle Spinoff Gets Title, Adds Sue&#;s BFF as Series Regular
Sue Heck will have at least one familiar face from Orson joining her when she makes her way to the Windy City. Brock Ciarlelli, who recurred as best friend Brad in all nine seasons of ABC&#;s recently ended The Middle, has joined the potential spinoff as a series regular, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
In addition, the Sue-centric offshoot now has an official title: Sue Sue in the City. (As longtime fans of The Middle will recall, the middle child&#;s full name is Sue Sue Heck.)
Ciarlelli was first introduced in Season 1 of The Middle as Sue&#;s flamboyant boyfriend. They broke up when Sue learned that Brad&#; smoked cigarettes. Then, in Season 7, Brad came out as gay. The pair remained inseparable for the duration of the series&#; run.
Sue Sue in the City received an official pilot order back in August. The potential series will find Sue leaving Indiana to pursue a career — and young adulthood — in Chicago. Middle creators Eileen Heisler and DeAnn
Despitebeingon a successful sitcom, actor Brock Ciarlelli refuses to say that means he’s “made it.” Why? Well, to him, saying that would mean he’s landed. And Ciarelli is definitely still in flight. “If I were to name a particular moment [that I would consider my large break] I think that would infer that I've 'made it.' And I don't think I have made it yet I hope I haven't made it yet.” That’s why Ciarlelli, who you can find playing Brad on ABC’s The Middle, plans to keep at it till he hits the heights he has in mind.
They’re heights he’s had in his mind’s eye since he was a kid growing up in the suburbs of Denver, a place he describes as the ultimate suburban realness. “If you can picture a place with white picket fences, minivans, and soccer moms handing out orange slices at half time that's a beautiful accurate picture of where I grew up,” Brock Ciarlelli. That’s the place where Ciarlelli discovered that acting was the only thing he could imagine doing with his life.
“Acting is something that I understand. I get it. Some people just 'get' things like quantum physics, or c
As the first-ever romantic comedy from a major studio to feature a predominately all-LGBTQ cast, Bros is chock full of familiar queer faces. If you were a fan of the famous sitcom The Middle, then you are bound to instantly acknowledge Brock Ciarlelli, well-known for playing Sue Heck’s flamboyantly gay adj friend, Brad Bottig.
Since The Middle wrapped up its nine-season verb, Ciarlelli is excited to hold on roles that seem to be a nice step forward from the beloved series and have more of an edge to them. In Bros, Ciarlelli plays Steve, an awkward and overzealous man who inserts himself in a delicate situation. Cringy, but comical, we are thrilled to see a different side of the multi-hyphenate actor.
He took some time to talk more about Bros and The Middle with Instinct, as well as his passion for entertainment and his hope of creating LGBTQ stories that appeal to the masses.
Thank you for taking some time to chat with me, Brock! Let me begin by asking, how excited are you to be involved with Bros?
So excited! I like to state, I got a little bit of blue balls
Brad From The Middle Is Unrecognizable Now
After being in production for over two years, ABC aired the first episode of "The Middle" on September 20, , just days before the debut of the monster hit series "Modern Family." The former sitcom's portrayal of a middle-class family in Indiana proved to be a success: it ran for nine seasons and received a number of awards along the way. While "The Middle" featured a star-studded cast of industry veterans ranging from Patricia Heaton to Neil Flynn, it helped launch the careers of childish actors such as Atticus Shaffer and Brock Ciarlelli.
Ciarlelli, a theater kid who grew up in Colorado, told HuffPost he snagged the role of Sue Heck's boyfriend-turned-best friend, Brad Bottig, just days after he was first called in to audition. "Whirlwind is the only pos in my vocabulary that accurately describes the process of booking the show," he stated. "TV casting moves fast no matter what — but it's even more so when I'm flying halfway across the country for a two-minute audition!"
As Brad grew up on the series, Ciarlelli grew up, too. He wen
