This week on The Story & Craft Podcast, we sit down with Beulah Koale.  He made a name for himself as an actor in his native New Zealand before becoming familiar to a wider audience in the movie Thank You For Your Service, where he co-starred alongside Miles Teller.  Many know him as Junior Reigns in the CBS series Hawaii Five-0.  Now, Beulah is bringing his talent back to the big screen in the film Dual, where he co-stars alongside Karen Gillan and Aaron Paul.  We talk about his career, his time as a rugby player and our mutual love of Hawaiian food.  It’s a pleasure to bring you Beulah's story this week on Story and Craft.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS0:02:47 - Connections Between New Zealand and Polynesia0:09:23 - Childhood in New Zealand0:16:53 - Move to Hawaii for in-State Tuition0:25:51 - Common Backgrounds of Actors0:28:48 - Writers' Impact on Expression0:31:27 - Unique Movie Experience With Aaron Paul0:40:26 - Discussion About Hawaiian Cuisine0:46:42 - Seven QuestionsListen and subscribe on your favorite podcast app.  Also, check out the show and sign up for the newsletter at www.storyandcraftpod.com. ...#podcast #interview #BeulahKoale #Actor #Dual #HawaiiFive0CBS #NewZealand #RunItStraight #acting #actorslife #storyandcraft #voiceover
