What began as clicking on a random Facebook ad has turned into working alongside greats like Kevin Costner for Macedonio Salvador Elías III.

He said, “July 13, 2022. The day I was driving back to Texas from day-working in Wyoming. What I thought looked like a fake ad kept popping up on my Facebook timeline. So many times that I pulled over and sent a photo and video to the email it provided at the bottom of the page…not knowing it would change my life forever. With the help from my Boss @jcustomlands I was able to make the trip to Utah from Texas for this background role not knowing it would turn into more. I was just happy I was asked to come to work with the legend @kevincostner.

“When we finished our first scenes, they asked if I could ride bareback and I responded I could with a few other guys. We ended up getting picked to do all of the bareback chase scenes. We were now stuntmen. When we got back, they picked two of us for a feature scene. they ended up picking Randal Murphy and myself. We had no idea we would be the climax to the story. Here we are 2 years later and I have had the privilege and honor to work on Horizon 1 and 2 and walk the red carpet with some great folks.

“Most importantly I have created life long lasting friendships with the cast and crew. They saw something in this kid he didn’t see in himself. For that, I am forever grateful to be sharing this space with everyone I have encountered these last two years. Thank you @kevincostner for the opportunity of a lifetime! 

I hope y’all enjoy the film. Many hours, sweat, and tears were put into it by so many passionate people. Thank y’all for believing in the kid from Texas! Here’s to two more movies.”
