This experience opened doors for Arbuckle to secure spots in dozens of national and international commercials for heavy hitters like Sony, BMW, Coors Light, and Pepsi.Arbuckle continued to pursue interesting and challenging roles that would provide invaluable experience along the way. These opportunities also provided a platform to work with some of the most accomplished television and film stars of today such as Viggo Mortensen, David Cronenberg and Michael Madson.2010 was a pivotal year for Arbuckle, securing a role as a regular on ABC's Happy Town alongside Sam Neil and Steven Weber.
