Peder Lindell talks "Descendants: The Rise of Red", becoming a pilot, and that time his height made him lose a role!
About Peder:
American actor and overall thrill seeker Peder Lindell has had a stunning rise in the entertainment industry that has continued to collect momentum. This actor/aviator/daredevil launched into the professional world of entertainment at just eleven years old, starring as Billy Ray in the Jungle Theater's production of "On Golden Pond" in Minneapolis. This impressive debut led to his Broadway Reimagined performance in "Gypsy" at the Pantages Theater, earning him accolades from across the Broadway World as "a fine young actor.”
Within the last year, Peder's career has reached new heights. Lindell has joined Disney's widely beloved franchise, "The Descendants," as Morgie, the son of Morgana Le Fay, in the highly anticipated film "The Descendants: The Rise of Red." He traveled to Montana to take on the groundbreaking role of Gus in the state's first queer skateboarding film, "Scraps," produced by Colton Underwood. Back in Los Angeles, he gripped audiences in the role of Jason in his university’s stage revival of "Bare: A Pop Opera.”
Peder's talents extend far beyond the stage and screen. He took to the skies at just sixteen and is now an instrument-rated commercial pilot. He owns a Grumman Tiger prop plane, his beloved "sky convertible," which embodies his thrill-seeking nature. His interests are both diverse and daring. His adventurous spirit is reflected in his athletic prowess: a Division III ice hockey player at Loyola Marymount University, he has excelled in soccer, wrestling, diving, baseball, skateboarding, rock climbing, and snow and water sports. Lindell is certified in emergency first response and as an advanced rescue scuba diver, his daredevil streak also extends to the arts of parkour, combat, and stunt training. He's actively training for his skydiving certification, aspiring to perform his own stunts like his idol, Jackie Chan.
Growing up in the artistic town of Northfield, Minnesota, Peder's journey into performing arts began with choir singing under the mentorship of renowned choral director Anton Armstrong. His talent soon led to roles in operas such as "La Bohéme," "A Midsummer Night's Dream," and "Hansel und Gretel," with performances in iconic venues including Canterbury, Southwark, and Nidaros Cathedrals, as well as Carnegie Hall. A decade later, his return to Carnegie Hall underscored Peder's enduring passion and talent. Lindell's standout performance in "The Abominables" at the Children's Theater Company received critical acclaim from The New York Times, solidifying his reputation as a standout industry talent.
Peder's film work includes "Out Of My Hands" and "Down The Drain," which premiered at the Catalina Film Festival 2021. His 2022 supporting actor nomination for "Dead Cell" and his role in the medieval fantasy series "Hidden Falls" showcased both his range and depth as a storyteller.
Praised for his "impressive naturalism" by the St. Paul Pioneer Press and described as having "the chops and charisma to keep us on his side" by the Star Tribune, Peder Lindell is now based in Los Angeles, completing his bachelor's degree at Loyola Marymount University. With his boundless talents and relentless drive, Peder is not just aiming for the stars—he's already among them.

Hymnson Chan talks his extensive stunt work, improvising with Larry David on "Curb Your Enthusiasm", and the time he threw himself in a wall during an audition!
About Hymnson:
Born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Hymnson Chan's journey began in a city known for its rugged beauty and diverse culture. However, his formative years were spent in Quincy, Massachusetts, just outside of Boston, where he navigated the challenges of growing up in a predominantly Irish-Catholic neighborhood. Raised by immigrant parents from Hong Kong, Hymnson inherited a rich tapestry of resilience and determination. Despite facing discrimination and hardship, Hymnson's parents instilled in him the values of empathy, humility, and faith, which he carried on into adulthood.
Today, Hymnson is recognized as one of Hollywood's most sought-after stunt performers. His remarkable skills have been showcased in blockbuster hits, including Bullet Train, as well as Marvel’s Avengers: Endgame, where his stunt work won him a SAG Award. No stranger to being on camera, Chan has been recognized for several appearances on the small screen, including I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson, Grey’s Anatomy, Kidding, Shameless, Key & Peele, and Jane The Virgin, to name a few. He also recurred in Syfy’s Underlings. Most recently, Chan had the pleasure of starring alongside Larry David as his latest nemesis on the final season of HBO’s hit series Curb Your Enthusiasm.
Beyond his work in front of the camera, Chan is a talented screenwriter and storyteller. He recently won the WeScreenplay TV Pilot Competition with his grounded Sci-Fi-Action pilot, “DAI LO,” inspired by his mother's immigrant experience and his own journey as a first-generation AAPI. His writing often delves into themes of identity, family, and social issues, aiming to empower marginalized communities and challenge stereotypes. In a world divided by differences, Chan hopes his work continues to break barriers, leaving a legacy of kindness, resilience, and boundless creativity behind.
Outside his work in Hollywood, Chan actively supports charitable organizations such as Best Friends Animal Society, No-Kill Los Angeles (NKLA), Angel City Pitbulls, and the Coalition of Asian Pacifics in Entertainment (CAPE). He believes in using his platform to amplify voices and create opportunities for underrepresented groups in the industry, a testament to his unwavering commitment to making a positive change.
In his free time, Chan enjoys playing escape rooms with his wife, collecting sneakers, and cheering for Boston sports teams. He finds joy in exploring different cultures through travel and food, always seeking to broaden his horizons and connect with others on a deeper level.

Daniel Augustin talks life-long friendships through music, working on Rap "Shi!t", and being your own advocate!
About Daniel:
Daniel is a Haitian American actor, director, writer, and musician born in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. His entertainment journey started with his discovery and passion for music at his parents church. He was a natural, frequenting the control room, where he learned to manage the soundboard and record audio. By age ten, he became a hip-hop recording artist when he took part in forming the gospel rap group, Mav-7. At age 21, he co-produced and recorded his first solo, Neo-Soul, and hip-hop album titled: I'm Sorry 4 the Delay.
Eager to learn about the other facets of entertainment, Daniel started his television career working as a production assistant on As Seen On TV. This experience catapulted his passion, interest and excitement for the entertainment industry and he became hungry to take on greater roles. Daniel and his wife/creative partner created a production company, Augustin Productions, where they have produced over five short films and created two digital series, Cake (@cake_theseries), which released on IGTV and Kinfolk (@kinfolktheseries). With these projects, he combined his love and expertise on developing the music, production, editing and directing. His series Kinfolk was widely recognized and selected into Tribeca's 2022 Creator's Market.
With so much success behind the camera, it's no surprise Daniel is as impressive (not to mention charming) in front of the camera as well! He has been featured on the hit series Grey’s Anatomy and has notable recurring roles on the highly popular spinoff Hulu series How I Met Your Father, alongside Hilary Duff, and Hulu's Wu-Tang: An American Saga. Daniel is most known from his fan-favorite role as Maurice on the HBO Max hit comedy series Rap Sh!t. Maurice is the lead Shawna's (Aida Osman) friend and co-worker at the Miami hotel. Together they start a fraud ring, along the way blurring the lines of friendship and romance. Rap Sh!t, which has an astounding 100% rotten tomatoes score, is an inclusive and inspirational comedy series about two estranged high school friends who through both the dream of trying to become rappers and the need to survive, decide to try to break into the music industry. The series is inspired by the real story of the founding and later success of the rap duo City Girls.
Daniels undeniable talent and impression he made on Season 1 landed him as a series regular on Rap Sh!t Season 2, produced by the incomparable Issa Rae (creator of standout comedy series HBO's Insecure). He is excited to show the world what is in store for Maurice in Season 2!
In his free time Daniel enjoys boxing, playing basketball, creating music, and reading. He is passionate about helping and mentoring aspiring filmmakers in film school and serving his Haitian community in any way he can. Additionally, he wants to spread awareness on the importance of men's health (getting regular check-ups and colonoscopies). Daniel also loves spending time with his wife and furry child Teddy, his spunky golden retriever.
