The true-life friendship duo of Dillon Brown and Michael Rock is never more present than what the two bring to their on-screen “bromance” in Tahoe Joe. Brown and Rock met while Brown was working on a horror film in 2021 and the two hit off immediately. They love making found footage style horror films together, but more importantly, have learned that casting veterans and first-responders who suffer from PTSD (something Rock battles routinely from his time as a Green Beret during the Iraq war and in his current position as an investigator tackling child sex crimes and eliminating child predators for a three-letter agency.) have greatly benefited from acting as a form of therapy. Because of this, the two have cast veterans and first responders in favor of traditional actors in most of their films.
