My best friend in the world was on this. He is an actor but also runs the art dept for features and has also worked as an AD and a PA. But I’m so so so excited for him for this- my gay ass BFF was just cast as the ghost of General Custer on this motherfucker and will be acting opposite this talented motherfucker.
The series is written by and cast with a 100% indigenous cast and is hilarious and they also film exclusively in OK on a local reservation. The cast is going to blow up- the youngest booked a Spielberg film when they were at Tribeca- but I am so profoundly impressed by the male lead and how much love was put into this little series and if you’re looking for your next “prestige” dramedy, I urge you to watch it. It’s pretty fucking wonderful, I have to say.
Tldr- watch Reservation Dogs- you’ll love it.
Reservation Dogs is a comedy television series created by Sterlin Harjo and Taika Waititi. It is a notable first in that it features all Indigenous writers and directors, along with an almost entirely-Indigenous American cast and production team. It is also the first series to be shot entirely in Oklahoma. The series premiered on August 9, 2021 on FX on Hulu.
