Greg Sestero is the co-author of The Disaster Artist. He has also written a pair of new movies called Best F(r)iends Parts One and Two (get tickets here). Sestero co-stars in the films with his friend and collaborator Tommy Wiseau. The two previously appeared together in the infamous cult classic The Room.

Some scenes in Best F(r)iends were filmed in a real morgue. Greg Sestero says that the location inspired the cast and crew: “When you walk into the actual morgue – the smell that’s there, seeing [a corpse] in that state – it just kinda makes you realize you’re lucky to have this day and you’re lucky to have anything. We take a lot for granted. I just felt really fortunate to have the opportunity just to be doing what you love – on any level. A lot of people think, ‘I should be flying in some superhero movie,’ or whatever, but it just taught you a lot that you’re lucky to have this day and to make the most of it.”
