In the time I have known him, I have come to believe and acknowledge that Preston is one of the most versatile of the working actors in existence today who can portray any type of role on the vast spectrum of characters and personalities while eliciting a robust reaction from the viewers, an instance that does not always occur with the supporting cast in these kinds of films. In my humble opinion, Preston has the distinction of being in that exceptional group of young men who have paid their dues and are patiently awaiting that serendipitous lead role which will demonstrate what his devoted friends, his loving family, and his loyal fans already know: Preston is the complete package. And while next year we anticipate yet another installment in the ongoing mystery saga that is bound to captivate the viewers– Mystery 101–don’t forget to visit Preston’s links below and consider following him on social media (he does a respectable job of keeping the fans updated on Instagram). I hope that everyone tunes in to Hallmark Movies & Mysteries December 21st (premieres on the W Network on December 22nd) for the second Andrew Walker Hallmark Christmas movie of the season (aren’t we blessed?) and the debut Hallmark movie for Ashley Greene– Christmas On My Mind (based on the book written by the amazing author, Denise Hunter and adapted by my friend, Kirsten Hansen). I still long for the day when Preston will have ultimately earned that coveted leading role with Hallmark, but until that time, I will be in his corner, shouting and singing his praises because he is one extraordinary young man with a future of boundless opportunities as more come to recognize his phenomenal skills and dynamic persona. Regardless, I have every intention of being his veritable champion while continuing to declare his unquestionable prowess and generous spirit to as many people as humanly possible. And it would seem that I missed meeting many other people who were in the vicinity–Preston included–so I’m hoping that I have the opportunity to meet him in person in 2020. When you approach a role, a story, as a curious human who wants to play for the sake of playing, however, you get out of your head and into your heart – that’s where the good stuff takes place.Ĭhristmas On My Mind is a particularly special production to me because it was during the filming of this movie that my dream was finally actualized: meeting Andrew Walker in person (it was our third attempt!). When you’re constantly trying to be a good actor, you’re always asking yourself if what you’re doing is good or bad, right or wrong, but the truth is that this job doesn’t really work well with those questions rolling around in your head. A lot changed for me too when I shifted my mindset from wanting to be a “good actor”, to thinking life is more interesting when I approach it as a curious human. Seize every opportunity to get up and exercise your craft. I suppose, for me, it’s always been a matter of showing up and taking stock of the opportunities that are at hand. What is your advice to other young actors who are wanting to follow a similar path to your career? In my opinion, you’re a “success” story in terms of working actors–moving from small role to “other guy” to murderer, to recurring role.
