Many people know Chris Tamburello or “CT” as a competitor on MTV’s"The Challenge.
Tamburello is both excited and nervous about this next step.
The film is a rendition of the 1932 classic inspired by the short story with the same title.
He stars alongside longtime actors like Casper Van Dien, Tom Berenger, Bruce Dern, and Judd Nelson.
Tamburello saw this project as a great opportunity to work with incredible actors and push himself in the role.
He wanted to ensure he understood his character and what he’d been through.
As the story unfolds, Sanger fights to survive the island and work through his trauma from the war.
“They were generally … they had tougher outlook … they were harder,” Tamburello said.
“You suppressed what you were going through, and maybe it’ll go away.”
He wanted to take every step seriously to do the character justice.
I’m hoping that people are pleasantly surprised.
I really wanted him to have some depth," he said.
