Ep 213: From Coeur d’Alene to Hollywood - Clark Shotwell Takes Flight

What a treat to sit down and talk with 10-year-old Clark Shotwell, the young star of John Travolta’s new film Propeller One-Way Night Coach, now streaming on Apple TV. Clark plays Jeff, a young airplane enthusiast whose cross-country journey with his mother becomes the adventure of a lifetime. Set during the golden age of aviation, the film is written, directed, narrated, and produced by John Travolta—and marks Clark’s feature-film debut. We talk with Clark about landing the role, working with John Travolta and the cast, the magic of stepping onto a film set, and what it’s like to see your first major movie take flight. It’s a fascinating conversation about acting, Hollywood, and his unexpected journey, including post-premiere interviews and an exciting trip to the Cannes Film Festival in Paris. Meanwhile, you can see Clark and his entire family perform locally at the annual Christmas show at The Coeur d’Alene Resort, opening the day after Thanksgiving. Tickets for the Christmas show will be available at cdaresort.com/events later this fall.
