Landon talks about how being autistic influences the way he tells stories, what it’s like working in entertainment, and why real representation matters. He also shares the inspiration behind his new movie, which was made in honor of his young autistic cousin and dives into themes like grief, healing, and finding hope. From aviation to filmmaking, Landon's path has been anything but boring.
