This week, the crew sits down with Buffalo native and acclaimed actor William Fichtner for an inspiring conversation on craft, career, and chasing the dream. With Kyle tuning in remotely from Las Vegas, Jordan takes the lead as we dive into Bill’s reflections on the value of preparation, believing in yourself, and staying dedicated to the work—even when the odds are uncertain.
We revisit Coldbrook, the heartfelt drama Fichtner directed and shot in Western New York nearly eight years ago, and explore his recent performance in Michael Mailer’s Cutman. The team also highlights the upcoming Casting Buffalo Actors Expo on August 23rd—an event Bill calls a top-tier opportunity for actors to connect, grow, and take the next step.
To close, Bill teases a potential return to Buffalo in 2026 with a new project on the horizon.
