Tom Prior stars in this exclusive clip from his new movie Firebird! The 31-year-old rising British actor not only starred in the movie, but he also served as a co-writer and producer.
In the clip, his character talks with Roman, played by Oleg Zagorodnii, about his “silly little dream” of being a soldier-turned-actor.
