Lance Guest: Talking The Last Starfighter & Jaws: The Revenge

We’re joined by the legendary Lance Guest for a fantastic conversation! From getting chased by Michael Myers in Halloween II as a young ambulance driver to carrying The Last Starfighter as the lead at just 23 years old, Lance takes us through his rapid rise and what it felt like stepping onto that massive sci-fi set. We also dive deep into Jaws: The Revenge, including the wild true story of Michael Caine literally saving his life on set, the chaotic reshoots, and why his character became the ultimate voice of the audience. Lance shares thoughtful insights on acting against invisible effects, building character arcs, and the realities of big studio productions. Plus: his under-the-radar gem The Wizard of Loneliness, playing music, and more! A heartfelt, funny, and insightful episode with one of the nicest guys in the business. Don’t miss it.
