It's rare to be cast as the lead of a feature film when you're eleven years old. What's even more rare is to be cast in one of the most notorious and celebrated bad movies ever made. Michael Stephenson's foray into the film industry was his starring role in Troll 2. This may have destroyed his career, or his life, but Michael's strange career path and his love for underdog filmmaking stories got him on a track of directing documentary and narrative films. His films include Best Worst Movie, Girlfriend's Day and his most recent project Attack of the Murder Hornets (now available on Discovery+). Listen for an inspiring and unique story about someone truly making the best out of the hand they were dealt.
