Kristoffer Polaha, who will be in the upcoming science fiction action movie “The Shift,” thinks it’s time for Hollywood to make movies that show people doing good things instead of bad ones. 46-year-old Polaha has been in the business for a long time and has seen a big change in the kinds of media that are made for movies and TV. It is part of his religious duty to try to get Hollywood to make more movies and TV shows that support “integrity” and “faith.”
“I believe that seeing someone with integrity, someone fighting for love, someone who is honest and true to their heart, what does that look like?” “We need role models,” Polaha told The Christian Post in an interview not too long ago. He said, “I work in Hollywood, I love Hollywood, and I think Hollywood tries as hard as it can to be as representative as possible, even if it sometimes feels heavy-handed and misses the mark.” It almost seems like we are telling so many stories that we forget to tell the most important ones.
In the movie “The Shift,” which will come out in January 2024, Polaha plays the character Kevin, who lives in a bleak society. As Kevin looks for the woman he loves all over the multiverse, he meets “The Benefactor,” a strange figure played by Neal McDonough. The main idea of “The Shift” is that everyone has the potential to be broken and ruined because that is who we are at our core.
If I told you that you could do anything you wanted, would you do it? The topic is not hard to understand. There are no consequences, and ethically and legally, you can do whatever you want. So, this is what happens to my character,” he said. In every universe except one, the main figure, a power broker, “represents an agent of chaos.”
