It is with a heavy heart that I say “see you later” to my Wild Fire family. This was far and away the most special, unique, joyful, positive feature film process I’ve ever had the honor of being a part of. The tireless spirit of this team is unmatched. As one of my fellow actors stated, we never heard a negative word out of ANYONE on this set. Ever. No matter how late, cold or tired we were. And I think that speaks volumes about everyone present and their time and attention to the work at hand.
A big old thank you is in order to our hosts and Executive Producers Jennifer Forgione and Jennifer Cooney for inviting us into their world for these last few weeks and introducing us to all the beautifully supportive people in your lives. The way your friends, family, and community rallied around this project was a truly special thing to behold.
And a separate GIGANTIC thank you is in order to our fearless leader, writer, director, and all-around bad-ass: Jennifer Cooney. Thank you for all the hospitality, the laughs, the thoughtfulness, and the never-ending pride in your work. I will always hold my experience on this project dearly in my heart.
Keep your eyes peeled for more content and updates on this amazing project on the @wildfire.featurefilm Instagram page. Until then…
