If Wyatt Russell looks familiar, it's because he's the perfect blend of his famous parents, Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell . Wyatt has been making a name for himself in such films as Richard Linklater 's Everybody Wants Some! and the singer-songwriter indie Folk Hero & Funny Guy , which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival this spring.

Wyatt was honored with the Rising Star Award at the 2016 Maui Film Festival on June 15, 2016, which "honors a young film artist whose every role -- even in their formative years -- surprises, enthralls and delights audiences of every age."

In this clip, he discusses how Maui (the island) has exceeded his expectations.
