Instead of directing Kieran away from such a mature role as one of serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer's victims, Kieran’s parents support him in his big break.

This story is published in partnership with SoJannelleTV, a magazine show about Filipinos in North America

where he impressed Steve Harvey with his martial arts moves, but it wasn’t until he got out of his comfort zone that he landed his breakout role.The role called for partial nudity, which Tamondong’s mother Michelle saw as a challenge for him to push his barriers as a performer. Tamondong, who was not yet 21, had to seek advice from his father Patrick about how to pretend to be inebriated as he had never drank before.

“At the end of that episode we shut it down, we just wanted to think about it. We looked at each other and said, ‘He did good.’”“The first time we watched it on the big screen, I was so nervous because every time I act I’m a little hesitant on the way that I provided my lines. But when it came up I thought, this is probably the best thing I’ve ever done so far,” he said.

“I found out that he’s Filipino and he has so many similarities to me. It was just a complete brotherhood between two actors. And I think it really strengthened both of us, we’re both really good friends now because of that show,” said Tamondong.
