From high school theater elective to Disney's newest live-action remake, actor Skylar Bible takes us behind the scenes of his journey to becoming Agent Foster in the highly anticipated "Lilo & Stitch" hitting theaters May 23rd.
Skylar shares his experiences on iconic sets like "The Book of Boba Fett," where Jon Favreau unexpectedly stepped in to direct his scenes, offer a rare glimpse into the surreal moments that punctuate an actor's journey.
When discussing "Lilo & Stitch," Skylar describes how filming in Hawaii created an unexpectedly intimate atmosphere that felt more like an independent film than a major Disney production. This unique environment allowed for creative freedom, improvisation, and genuine connections between cast members—elements he believes will translate to the screen when audiences experience the film.

His advice for aspiring actors emphasizes the paramount importance of relationship-building and professionalism on every project, no matter how small.
