Exciting news for Bigfoot enthusiasts! A new film featuring our favorite elusive creature is making waves across the nation. The movie, "Sasquatch Sunset," stars Jesse Eisenberg, Riley Keough, and the talented Christophe Zajac-Denek as a Sasquatch. Recently, KCAL News had the opportunity to interview Christophe Zajac-Denek about his experience preparing for the role. In the interview, Zajac-Denek shared that the film is dialogue-free, relying on the actors' physicality and body language to convey the story. To prepare, the cast underwent a week-long "Bigfoot boot camp" where they learned how to move and interact like Sasquatch. Zajac-Denek expressed his excitement about being a part of the project, stating that he had been an actor in LA for 15 years and had auditioned for many roles before being selected for "Sasquatch Sunset." He also shared his appreciation for the practical special effects used in the film, which he found to be more engaging than CGI. As a little person, Zajac-Denek is also passionate about raising awareness for people with dwarfism and has started a podcast called "I'm Kind of a Big Deal" to promote acceptance and exposure for those with differences. "Sasquatch Sunset" is currently playing in theaters across the US. As Bigfoot believers, we are thrilled to see our favorite creature being represented in a unique and engaging way. We highly recommend checking out the film and sharing your thoughts with the community.
