He offers exclusive behind-the-scenes insights and reveals incredible details about the production - did you know that the Coliseum built up to a 1:1 scale? Or that every second of the recording cost as much as $3,600? But this conversation is about more than just film. Alexander also shares poignant stories from his childhood, where the absence of a father figure shaped his life philosophy and drive to be a present and engaged parent.
