Dolly Grip Steven Buehler Breaks Down Strike Struggles, Eagerness to Make ‘Movie Magic’

The “Bullet Train” and “The Idol” crew member gets candid about life during the strikes in TheWrap’s Bold Steps, presented by Johnnie Walker

Steven Buehler is intimately familiar with the nomadic nature of working as a grip in Hollywood, but the dual strikes of 2023 threw him for a loop. His work ranges from the Brad Pitt action film “Bullet Train” to the sultry HBO series “The Idol,” and Buehler credits his initial desire to be an actor for how he approaches his job.

“I kind of fell into it as I was trying to make my way as an actor. Having a little bit of an acting background helps me as a dolly grip because part of your job is to be able to follow the movements of the actors,” he said in TheWrap’s Bold Steps presented by Johnnie Walker.
