Biography
Born on December 20th 1996, in Los Alamitos, CA to Brenda and Dennis Polar. Six months after his birth, his parents moved themselves and their son out of Los Alamitos in May of 1997, and eventually settled into Hawthorne. Sometime in 2003, BrenDen took an interest in the film industry after watching Orson Welles's Citizen Kane (1941) at only age 6. After receiving a camcorder from his parents, he would often make short films with his action figures, Legos and stuffed animals. BrenDen also took an interest in other positions in film such as writing (after writing a successful short story when he was only in 4th grade), and acting (after starring in several projects such as his aunt's made for TV movie: Meet me After School).
In the fall of 2005, BrenDen and his parents relocated to the small, yet populated neighborhood: Los Feliz where BrenDen also attended Franklin Avenue Elementary School with Superman Returns (2006) co-star: Tristan Lake Leabu. Polar and his parents continued to live in Los Feliz for the next three years until his parents finally separated just around the time of the 2008 financial crisis. Following their departure from Los Feliz, BrenDen and his father moved in with his aunt in Lakewood. They stayed there for the next six months until they moved again, this time into BrenDen's grandparents' house in Murrieta. Sometime later that same year, Polar moved away from his grandparents to live with his mother. In the next few years that followed, BrenDen and his mother moved around to different locations to live in. Polar also lived in the San Fernando Valley, where he also met some of his closest friends in the industry such as his co-writer: Kyle Chen, and actress Hailey Hayes. After finishing up his freshman year at Valley Academy of Arts and Science Valley high school, Polar and his mother finally moved out of the Valley, in the summer of 2012. During Polar's sophomore year of high school, his mother rented a room for them at a friend's house in Lakewood. BrenDen was also home-schooled for his entire sophomore year. Sometime later, they relocated and settled into Newport Beach. In the fall of 2013, BrenDen began his junior year at Newport Harbor High School. Polar finally graduated from Newport Harbor in June of 2015. He is currently living in Irvine and is attending Saddleback College in Mission Viejo.
In order to continue his pursuit for acting, he studied at the Musical Theatre Class and The Young Actor's Studio. He is currently continuing to try and perfect his craft for acting by studying different methods of acting at both theatre and acting classes. He has recently began taking classes for directing as well. He has also written many different screenplays for feature films such as Michelle's Last Dance, The Man Beyond The Writer, S.P.A.T, and many others he is currently working on.
In addition to wanting to pursuing his career as a screen writer, director and actor, BrenDen has also considered to one day pursue a career as a novelist. Often citied as a mature person for his age, BrenDen has also gained many close associates and friends in film, due their praise of his honest personality and self awareness, as well as their enjoyment of his dark, gritty and realistic style of films and writing.
