This experience has given me countless unforgettable memories, challenges, and, most importantly, a cast and crew I adore.” He continued, “The dedication, hard work, laughter, and even tears poured into this film will likely remain known only to us, but I can’t wait for everyone to witness the magic and integrity we aimed to create every day on set.” He humorously added, “Now it’s time for this spotted horse to return to my music and spend time with my dog, but until October 2026—mama, that’s a hadouken!”
