Born and raised in the Hudson Valley,NY, Justin hails from a little town called Hopewell Junction. The youngest son of Giulio and Millie Possenti, Justin grew up in an idyllic setting on the top of a mountain a short ride from the banks of the Hudson River. After studying political science and journalism at Arizona State, Justin moved to Austin, TX where he began to learn about acting. Landing a stand-in gig for Ron Livingston on the movie Office Space sparked the desire to pursue acting on a more serious level so he moved to Los Angeles, CA. Over a period of time he studied the three schools of acting born out of The Group Theatre. He studied with Jeff Goldblum at Playhouse West, famed acting coach Janet Alhanti and at the Atlantic Theater in New York City. During this time period Possenti began a serious contemplation of film and film history which lead to the creation of his first short film, The Bridge. The Bridge made it's premiere in Cannes at the Short Film Corner in 2011. Show less «
