Where he is now

From Dillon to Now

Buddy Garrity — the loud, football-obsessed car dealer and Panthers booster — was the show's great comic-dramatic engine. Brad Leland made him impossible not to love.

A prolific Texas character actor with 100+ credits, his recent work includes HBO's The Last of Us (2023) and Love & Death (2023), with the film The Gates listed for 2026 — and he stays close with fans on Cameo.
