Michael Saquella: Michael Saquella is a multi-faceted actor and director with a long history in film, television, comedy, commercials, and live entertainment. His journey began in Rochester, NY, where he set his sights on the film industry at a young age. Over time, he worked his way to Los Angeles, CA, and built a steady career despite the challenges and changes of the entertainment world. A notable example of his persistence was being cast as John Belushi in the made-for-TV movie ‘Wired,’ reflecting the determination he brought to every role. Mike Saquella was chosen for this project after years of performing as John Belushi in live shows like “Legends in Concert” and “Legendary Superstars” across the United States and Canada. His talent as a blues singer and voice impersonator was also a key factor in his standing out. However, due to legal complications, production was paused and later resumed with another actor. Despite this, he continued to develop his skills and pursue new opportunities. In 2023, he played the lead in “A Conversation with a Mobster,” a comedy-drama that allowed him to bring both humor and depth to the character of an Italian-American crime boss.
