Got a rough cut of a clip of my son #AndrewChanPossemato in KINGS!

He plays Isaac, a chess fanatic obsessed with winning. Serious, intelligent, controlling, and guarded, Isaac's cool, occasionally cruel demeanor masks a soft, sensitive soul.

My son #AndrewChanPossemato recently portrayed the younger version of one of the leads! The breakdown matched him perfectly, so I kept telling him that if he did a halfway decent job on the audition, that he’d be cast. And he was!

I found some images of me with (fake) psoriasis online from my photo shoot four years ago for the Bristol-Myers Squibb drug SOTYKTU.

Got another clip of my son #AndrewChanPossemato as the title character in ASH! This one's got a horror slant.

Dragged on a trip to his mother's childhood home, Ash encounters a house filled with ghosts, including the specter of his grandma and a haunted tree.
