Career

Sullivan starred as Abe in the 2004 independent film Primer, which won the Grand Jury Prize at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival.[1][2] Sullivan was nominated for the Film Independent Spirit Award for Best Debut Performance at the 2004 Film Independent Spirit Awards ceremony. The movie was filmed in Dallas in 2001, but spent two years in editing and post-production. Since the debut of Primer, Sullivan moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career as an actor. In August 2010, he filmed the independent comedy-drama, Ben Banks. Sullivan also had a small part in the 2012 film Argo as Jon Titterton.

He has appeared in several television shows including Joey, Justified, Big Love, Boston Legal and CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. In 2015, Sullivan joined the cast of ABC's crime drama series Wicked City as Detective Arnold "Arnie" Bukowski, a crass, loudmouth detective in charge of heading up the ongoing investigation of a Sunset Strip serial killer.[3] He also appeared as Dennis in the Netflix original series Flaked, opposite Will Arnett, which premiered in 2016.
