Kathy Onstad
Michael's sister is as gifted of a storyteller as her late-brother. She has graciously granted us her support and gave a fantastic interview for the doc.
Mickey Rourke
Though Mr. Rourke didn't know Michael personally, he was an enormous fan of Then Came Bronson and granted us an amazing interview.
Haley Joel Osment
The co-star of Tusk gave a fantastic interview with us about getting to know Michael and an amazing night they spent together.
Justin Long
Though their interaction was initially rocky, Michael and Justin soon formed a strong friendship. The two adored one another, and became thick as thieves.
Wyatt Russell
Wyatt co-starred in We Are What We Are with Michael where the two formed a close friendship. Wyatt gave us great stories about hanging out with Michael after hours.
Genesis Rodriguez
Genesis and Michael developed a very special friendship while on the set of Tusk. The two pal'd around together on and off set and remained friends afterward.
Robert Kurtzman
Bob is a legendary in special-effects and worked with Michael on both Dusk Till Dawn and Kevin Smith's Tusk.
Ralph Garman
Though Ralph and Michael didn't spend a ton of time together, their mutual admiration meant they became fast friends on the set of Red State where Ralph played his son-in-law.
Virginia Carlille
Virginia was a close friend of Michael and actually helped raise his son James.
James Parks
Michael's son and best-friend through life has been our backbone of support through this venture.
Tricia Mancuso Parks
Michael's daughter and perhaps the biggest cheerleader of this venture. Tricia is as optimistic as Michael was, and we're thankful to have her as part of the doc.
Leonard Maltin
The legendary critic gave an incredibly articulate interview where he supplied fantastic framing of the studio system.
Kurt Russell
One of Kurt's early roles was as The Spitball Kid on Michael's TV show, Then Came Bronson. They both had enormous adoration for one another's work.
Robert Rodriguez
When Quentin Tarantino was initially reluctant to work with Michael, he had his buddy Robert do it first. The result is the incredible opening of From Dusk Till Dawn.
Shannon McIntosh
Shannon first met Michael on the set of Dusk Till Dawn and the two developed a personal relationship that lasted all the way up to the end of Michael's life.
Mark Frost
Mr. Frost was excited to work with Michael on the set of Twin Peaks. Michael truly valued Mark's extraordinary work and vice versa. The two later worked together on the set of Mark's film Storyville later on.
Kevin Smith
Not only did we get multiple chances to interview the man who helped us bring this project to screen, we also had the opportunity to do one of those interviews at his old Smodcastle Theater!
Matt Pinfield
Matt is and was a huge fan of Michael's music. His sister developed a crush on Michael in her childhood and Matt would "borrow" her recordings of Michael's music when she wasn't looking.
Jim Mickle
Jim not only directed Michael in the amazing film, We Are What We Are, but he was a key figure and close friend in Michael's life.
We've been fortunate that so many people that either knew Michael or just loved his body of work have given us the opportunity to interview them for our documentary.
This is just a partial list of people that have taken time out of their schedule to be part of our doc. This is not a complete list and we have many more people scheduled that we haven't interviewed yet.
